Confirmed from Fred Young Park Mountain Bike Trail's 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.

What runners say about Fred Young Park Mountain Bike Trail

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (11 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

First time riding this trail today, nice crosscountry trail. Fun tight single track, no features. Someone reviewed this trail and said it was advanced, it's definitely not, it's Intermediate. Enjoy the ride!

★★★★☆ — Patrick , Mar 2022

The park needs some work the Bmx was rundown and in need of small repairs and grading the mountain bike trails look maintained and generally at beginner level for what I could see There is also some baseball fields that with some minor work could be top notch

★★★★☆ — Mattman , Oct 2022

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.
