Trail Description:
Nice woodsy singletrack with a few field edge sections. Fun water crossings and a couple "walk the bike down" novice "mountains". Deer and bird sightings (lot's of Red-tailed Hawks) abound. This is a great place to learn,don't hesitate to take ANYONE here, and it provides a few technical sections for those who can.
How to get there:
From Somerville, south on Rt. 206 to Amwell Rd.(514)east. Cross bridge into East Millstone and look for Canal Rd. (firehouse) immediatly over the bridge on right. Follow to Blackwells Mills Rd. stop sign, go across and it's about 200 ft on the left. You can also find an entrance on Rt. 27 in Franklin just north of Cortelyous Rd.
Additional Notes:
These trails are part of the D&R Canal park system with access to the canal about 100 feet away. Tr

your directions stink. You have to take a right onto market street to find your way around the bend to Canal Road on your right. Then take about 2.5 miles to the parking lot on your left. The trails were pretty good. I hit some narrow spots and really got scratched up but blood and mud go together...

This is a fun place for an afternoon. Not likely to get hurt beyond a few scratches. So, take the newbies. I think the total trail system is nearly 20 miles. The park is split into two sections and most people don't get over to the Eastern half.

Great trial as mentioned above a little something for everyone. Bridges, jumps, flats it's all here. If you live in the area, stop by and check it out. Have fun.

Fun Place to ride. The best trail to ride is the red trail. Its a shame that its not marked for bikes. The park should reconsider allowing bikes on that trail. Sometimes you just have to go rogue.

Biking is allowed on the blue and yellow trail only. No biking is allowed on the red trail. You can pick up a trail map at the park office at Blackwell's Mill Office
