Trail Description:
Great local trail to practice for harder ones. No one ever goes there. Find the trails via the dirt road, then follow through the woods. Very narrow, single lane trails takes you through streams, up steep hills, and down through a dense patch of trees. You will need to maneuver through very narrow gaps between those trees at high speed, making sharp turns to avoid a collision. Good overall practice trails for the harder routes.

How to get there:
From New Brunswick, take Route 1 South to Cozzens Lane(after Walmart and Pathmark shopping centers). Make right on Cozzens Lane, around bend and follow to the end. You will come to a "T" in the road, with a WaWa on the corner. Make a left here onto Route 27 South. Follow this about 1/2 mile until you see Hidden Lake apartments on the left. On the right, you will see a field. Park anywhere you can find a spot, then cross the field to enter the trails.
