MOUNTAIN BIKING: Goshen

← IN GRAHAM MCCULLOCH DITCH FORT WAYNE IN Single Tracks →

Description

Follow the driveway back to the Reith center, park & ride your bike through the grass past the south side of the center to the tree line where you will find the begining of the trail. At the trail head you only go about 8 feet before you make a sharp left & are on a ridge with a drop off to your right. Follow the trail through until you reach a small paved road. Go left & follow this road for 35-40 yards where you will see a stone path leading up the hillside to your right, go up the stone path & turn right on the millrace trail. Follow this trail (roughly 200 yards) until you see a stone path & foot bridge leading down into the woods on your right, it is easy to miss if you are not watching for it. Continue on following this trail until you reach the Millrace trail & Dam where you can take a breather then follow the trail in reverse back through to the trail head. This single track trail has some very dedicated mtb'ers that are committed to upkeep & trail improvements. There are a handfull of log hops, one drop off at the end of the foot bridge (can be walked) a couple very challenging hills, a root garden section & a small rock obsticle. In all I would consider the trail a very nice beginer course with enough challenging parts to be fun for a more advanced rider as well.

Directions

The trail head of the Goshen MTB trail is behind the Reith Interpretive Center which is located at 410 West Plymouth Avenue, the Reith center is directly across the road from Shanklin Park.
