Trail Description:
The trail starts out rolling and winding along until you get to the boat launch. This is the road part...not much

follow all the tire marks to the rest of the trail. You can ride this and connect it to the Sweetwater Trail and connect that to Salmon Falls to make one huge epic ride. Make it an all day deal and pack a lunch bring your light. Overall, it's not very difficult, just fast and fun!

How to get there:
Take the 50 north out of Sacramento and get off at El Dorado Blvd. Make a right and follow as it twist and turn. Make a left on Green Valley Rd. Follow and you will see a big rock wall. You can either park at the little trail head at the beginning of the levee or you can park in the Taco Bell parking lot down the road and ride across the levee.
