Description
Memorial Trail is definitely worth the drive south from the cities. This trail has some great technical sections if you know where to find them. There are lung busting climbs around almost every corner, but they are all well worth the effort.
Since the Memorial park trails are multi use (hiking, biking and XC skiing) they vary from singletrack to wide doubletrack. There is a belt of doubletrack that follows the north side of the bluff and then returns on the edge of the south side. The flow of the bike trails is clockwise with the entry on your left as you enter the first open area. The flow of hiking traffic is often counter to this on the double track, so you need to be cautious and courteous of hikers and their dogs...
