Ortonville Rec Area

Trail Description:
Two major loops within the area. Take both and decide which is your favorite. Trails are

singletrack and fast. Not technical at all so have fun. There's one whopper of a hill that you won't

see until you emerge from a forest. Go as fast as you can down and then take a left at the top of the hill

and ride about 200 feet and take another left - this will loop you around back to the other side of the hill again.

The hill is fun enough to ride 3 or 4 times. Have fun!!

How to get there:
M-15 north through Ortonville. Take a right onto Oakwood road (right after Beuche's Grocery Sotre)

Take a left off of Oakwood at the first road (I believe it's State Road.) Stay on that and take a right at the fist dirt road you come across.

The park will be on your left and you can't miss the park entrance. It's a self-pay area but I would advise paying to avoid the hefty fine.

Additional Notes:
Very lightly used for such great trails.

The directions to the trail are inaccurate. The first left off Oakwood Rd is Sands Rd. Take Sands to a right on State Park Rd then look for the signs to Bloomer No. 3 State Park on the left.
