MOUNTAIN BIKING: Harry Moss Park

← TX BEAR CK SHADY GROVE RD GRAND PRAIRIE TX Single Tracks →

Description

This is the newest MTB bike trail in Dallas, opened in Dec, 2010. As of <br />
4/5/2011 there are two main loops (Blue, Green) and a yellow bypass section. <br />
There is a longer orange section under construction. (We are trying to have it <br />
open by Mid May 2011) Start with the Blue section in the front, it starts with <br />
easy single track a narrow tree gate and a bridge crossing with a coupe of <br />
crossings over some rock piles. At the split either take the yellow bypass to <br />
the left (easy route) or continue on the blue loop to the right. This part of the <br />
blue winds up and down along the bank of the creek and the railroad right of <br />
way, intermediate level for the 1st half of blue loop. You can get a really good <br />
workout if you push it. The blue meets back up with the yellow at the bridge <br />
for Walnut Hill road. Go left to stay on blue loop back the the parking lot, <br />
(this section is mostly flowy and fast), or go right under the bridge to the <br />
Green loop. The green loop climbs up and down the bank of Walnut Hill road <br />
and then along the bank of the DART line, lots of off camber. The 2nd half of <br />
the green loop is flat with some twisty parts and tree gates. The (under <br />
construction) orange section (when finished) will add about 1.7 more miles and <br />
we plan to add more trail inside the green loop. There is 4 miles now and <br />
should be about 7.5 miles of trail when finished. See the DORBA.ORG website <br />
for instructions on how to get from the paved "White Rock Creek" trail to the <br />
Harry Moss trail.
