Confirmed from Comite River Park - Kerry Stamey Mountain Bike Trails' own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

🪧 well-marked 2 mentions

“Fast and flowing with the difficult sections well marked so beginners can easily go around them.”

Love these trails and so did my pup. Did not feel like we were still in BR. Very nice and peaceful. Would definitely come back and bring a picnic for the beach. Trails are pretty well labeled too so did not get lost.

★★★★★ — Neysha , Jan 2020

Great trail to hike, not many people, even on Valentines day. Remember to pick up after yourself, I found a few bottles I took out with me.

★★★★★ — Alexander , Feb 2020

Excellent riding trails, well maintained too! Had plenty of hikers going to the beach on the comite River this morning and bikers out. Local mtb group volunteers were on the trails doing some trimming keeping the place running.

★★★★☆ — Jerry , Apr 2023

Excellent MTB trail, fun for all skill levels. Fast and flowing with the difficult sections well marked so beginners can easily go around them. About 6 miles per lap if you do all the little extra sections, 5 miles of you stick to the main loop. I've always felt like it is one of BR's hidden gems.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.

🌲 Natural surface / singletrack 2 mentions

“But includes small jumps, technical climbs, roots, epic high drops, and a skinny to balance down on.”
