How to get there: on I-10 exit on Schuster go east, make a left on Mesa (go north), make right on Robinson ave (go east) make right onto Virginia avemake left onto parking lot of the Tennis and swim club. The loop around the park is about 2-3 miles. The best thing to do is to cross Robinson ave on the east area and continue on with the trail. The trail crosses the arroyo then it goes up towards the franklin mountains. It has some technical areas. Cons: there are areas where the large gravel becomes annoying. but overall good trail. A good clean up will help

After you do Arroyo, cross over Robinson/Scenic dr. and do the other part. Make sure you stay to the left past the no trespassing sign. You'll see the tire marks. This trail has a little bit of everything. Technical climbing, some technical downhills, single track, jeep roads. It will test your skills. Austin can kiss my #ss. You too Washington. Only thing is… it's too short.

The trail starts at the El Paso Tennis and Swim Club on Saint Vrain St. Tennis West is in the Upper Valley!

I started off on this trail, and to this day, I still get my rocks off on it. You can find it off Robinson Road, going east towards Scenic drive. You will see a gated community...next to it a white gait that leads into the mountain.

Anyone got directions? Starts at tennis west? This neighborhood does not connect to any trail heads? I will rate this trail a waste of time sense there are no directions to it.

these trails are not for everyone, especially if you own a hard tail, everyone who says this trailstinks, has little to no technical skills, great riding if your looking to put your trail bike to the test, very rocky, and washed out, but great for freeriding.

I know the person who built this trail, and it pretty much kicks ass. One man built 99% of this trail and it rocks.

I don't consider it a trail. Terrain is so dry, hot, and dusty you'll shrivel up like a dried prune.That's why I moved away from that area.For great trail biking try the trails around the Austin area. "Awesome".
