Intermediate to advanced hike and bike terrain. Lots of climbing, and fast berms and rolls on the descent. Several hiking loops (recommended loops page coming soon). Blazes are on a white marker with an “SVT arrow”. Vistas with benches offering scenic views of Lake Saint Catherine.
These trails are entirely on private property and are open to the public through the landowner’s generosity and their partnership with Slate Valley Trails.
Guidelines
- Welcome sunrise to sunset.
- No camping or fires to respect the landowner’s wishes.
- Foot and bicycle use only.
- Share the trails – bikers yield to hikers.
- Stay on marked trails – we went to a lot of trouble to build them.
- Avoid using trails when they are wet or during freeze-thaw cycles when trails are easily damaged (and costly to repair).
- Carry out your trash and pet waste.
- Be respectful to wildlife and other trail users.
- No firearms or public hunting – for everyone’s safety.
- Neighbors do hunt adjacent parcels. Wear blaze orange (dogs too), leash your dog, avoid trails before 10AM and after 3PM, use inside voices.
