MOUNTAIN BIKING: Purisma Creek

← CA LOWER CRYSTAL SPRINGS RES SAN MATEO CA Single Tracks →

Description

Get ready for a fun singletrack downhill. There are several switchbacks on the smooth ride <BR>down, nothing technical here. It can be really muddy once in the dense green forest. 3.5 <BR>miles later you'll find yourself at another trailhead. Take the Harkins Ridge trail back up to <BR>the parking lot or Purisma Creek Trail (preferred). The Purisma Creek Trail is a lovely ride <BR>by the creek for a while and then a gradual 3+ mile climb on doubletrack for nearly 1700 ft <BR>all the way to Skyline Blvd. Take the road north (left) for an easy 2 miles back to your car. <BR>Overall, the ride is fun, easy, and the wildflowers and surroundings are lovely.

Directions

From 280 or 101 take Hwy 92 exit west towards Half Moon Bay. Turn south (left) on Skyline <BR>Blvd/Hwy 35. Parking lot is 4.5 miles down the road on the right. Trail maps available at <BR>the trailhead.
