yes 2 trails close trail ride clock wise or counter but creek cross trail counter so as to walk up creek bed and ride down a killer hill with roller coaster pumps at bottom. take your time and learn how to read the lines. plus proper tire pressure and gear choices make it very fun. ride both trails and be happy. tubeless set up rocks. happy humping the rocks.

There are actually two dirt MTB trails here in addition to the paved trail: The East trail is accessible from the West side parking lot and is a decent loop trail that can be covered in about an hour. The West trail requires crossing kill creek to get to it. The cool water is great in the hot summer months but not so great in fall-winter. Also this trail requires back you to back track a nearly the entire length(not a loop) hopefully they will expand this trail soon to add an additional trail head. NOTE: The park service closes these trails at the slightest hint of rain and keeps them closed until the ground is completely dry. Don't bother going out if it's at all damp.
