Trails are close to OKC and are usually well maintained. The weather creates challenges, though. There’s >10 miles & across the street, there are also >7 miles of additional trails.
My go-to trail to do any type of ride. It’s fast, flowy and can be challenging when dry and sandy. These trails are very well maintained and the volunteers are constantly adding new features and additional mileage. The Dog Trail, directly across the street from the Draper trailhead has been a marvelous addition to Draper MTB trails. There are ~18 miles of riding now.
Fun trails, about 13 miles in total. Any/ all jumps are in need of heavy maintenence, pretty sandy on some of the turns so watch out. I wish they had one tail that didn’t have a 90° turn every 25ft so you could pick up some speed 😕 anyone know how to contact the maintenance crew? I’d love to volunteer
Edit: The black challenge rating area is in need of maintenance. One of the boards actually snapped under me on the big bridge (picture provided) and the cobble paved berms are sliding out from under my bike.
I’ll give it 5 stars again once the maintenance gets caught back up. (Could not find a way to report this other than here.)
Great mountain bike trails with some variety for more intermediate experience levels.
A long easy route (green) connects to the more difficult side routes (all other color trails) and they are all enjoyable.
gr8 ride, dog park across street. gotta try it more than once though. huge trail made of a bunch of smaller trails with plenty of chances to turn around.
