Big Bend Loop Reviews

The access road portion of the trail for hiking and mountain bikes is maintained very well and i highly recommend them. The foot path portion of the trail along the creek is not easy. There are multiple rock scramble areas, narrow trails righ on the bank of the river, and overgrown brush that covers sections of the trail. One section is a 3-4 foot drop off the large rock making it difficult to take dogs down. This would be a challenging loop for a fall/winter hike, but for the spring and summer, stick to the access roads.
