Farmdale Reservoir

Trail Description:
Awesome singletrack, a downhill run, mountain cross course, north shore features, just a great place to ride. There are enough fire roads and easy singletrack for beginners and there are drops, rock gardens, and stuff for the experts.

How to get there:
Take Washington Road in East Peoria and turn south on Farmdale Road between the Hucks and CVS. Follow the signs to Bittersweet road and stay on Bittersweet until you reach the park on your right. You'll pass the overlook for the dry reservoir, then go down the hill and see the large parking area on your right...park there....the trails take off left and right out of the lot.

Firebreak for beginners, some trails for intermediate, long trails for skilled. Exposed roots, washout, deep ruts, horse poop, river crossings, difficult uphills, crazy downhills. make sure you bring a map or you'll get lost. watch out for runners and horses.
