From the website: This trail is great for hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking, and it's unlikely you'll encounter many other people while exploring. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime. Dogs are welcome, but must be on a leash.

There are many trailheads for this trail as it crosses many roads. The path alternates between paved and gravel, so cyclists would need a mountain bike. Depending on recent and current weather conditions the unpaved gravel surfaces may be soft and difficult

Accessibility: Visitors using wheelchairs, mobility equipment, or strollers may need all-terrain tires or adaptive/motorized equipment for the unpaved surface areas and grade. Visitors using wheelchairs, mobility equipment, or strollers may need assistance in the steeper sections or to avoid them for safety. The most accessible portion of this trail is the first 7 miles out from the trailhead.
