We went to some new spots by invitation. Started with some sweet Rogue singletrack with amazing scenery and great rock riding, and ended with some Gravity Logic flow trails. Both....unreal quality, and amazing fun! Maybe you'll be able to tell by our reactions!

City Lake at Siloam Springs - OZ Trails Northwest Arkansas

City Lake trail system is north of Siloam Springs on the City Lake property owned by the City of Siloam Springs. There are 3 trails that add up to 3.2 miles of punchy climbs, flowing singletrack, and fun descents. Add in a few alternate lines that you can mix in to get some air. When you finish the loop turn around to ride in the opposite direction and it feels like a whole new 3.2 miles. On the west side of the property, Simons Descent begins at the top of the hill and is sure to make you smile. With a large starting deck, several rollers, a step up, nice bermed corners a couple of wall rides, and finishing off with an option to pick your drop back into the lot, this trail packs a lot of features. If you choose you can continue across Taylor Orchard Rd (to the south) and ride The Enchanted Forest trail down to the 505’ long elevated canopy boardwalk for fantastic views of the watershed. Continuing on the Enchanted Forest will lead you to the ADA trail which makes a loop around the field and leads to the Bicycle Skills Course and paved pump track. Join super trail advocate and volunteer, David Vansandt on a tour through the trails and check out OZTrailsNWA.com for more information.

Hobbs State Park Monument Trail - OZ Trails Northwest Arkansas

Ready for 40 miles of back country riding, swooping descents, where you don't have to think about where yoru next turn is? The Hobbs State Park Monument Trail in Rogers, AR, is the perfect place to ride! Join us as the Arkansas State Parks Foundation Program Manager, Amber Brown, shows some of her favorite places along this exciting trail! The new network features downhill-only trails, as well as plenty of meandering flow lines with views of Beaver Lake. You can get to it all by heading east on the Tunnel Connector Trail from the state park’s visitor center. This is where you’ll find the two downhill lines called Sawtooth and Timberjack, as well as a return trail. All three are about a mile long. It’s also where you’ll come across the connector trail’s namesake: the tunnel that gives riders safe passage under Highway 12. From the tunnel, you can take either the East or West Wolf Den trails. Both are about two-miles long and flow downhill to quickly get riders to the eight-mile Karst Loop Trail, which can be ridden in either direction. After a short climb, you’ll be rewarded with a flowing ridge trail that drops you through karst rock outcroppings down to the lake. There’s even a swimming spot if you’re looking for a mid-ride break, so consider bringing along a bathing suit in your pack. There are also ride-in campsites if you’re looking to stay a while longer. After finishing the Karst Loop, head back to the Visitor Center and if you’re still hungry for more riding, hit the 22-mile long Hidden Diversity Trail.

OZ TV Trail Highlight - Little Sugar Trail System in Bella Vista, Arkansas

In this series, we are featuring some of the most exciting trail projects and trail builders, artists, and craftsmen who are creating them. In this episode, join Gary Vernon, Walton Family Foundation Program Officer, and Candice Kozark of OZ Trails as they talk to Phil Penny with Rogue Trails on the new Little Sugar Trails. The hollers and ravines on the west side of Bella Vista have been opened up to the exploration of the new Little Sugar trail system. The current 40-mile open network takes trail users under bluffs along Sugar Creek and to a waterfall on Tanyard Creek as it wraps its way around Windsor and Avalon Lakes. Expect plenty of switchbacks and berms, as well as more advanced features like drops and jumps that have been generously sprinkled in throughout the system. You should also be prepared to stop and take in the lakes, creeks, waterfalls, caves, and other nooks and crannies found along w the trail system that will make you forget you’re just an Uber call away from your home or car in the event of a flat tire. Be ready to use those climbing legs, too. The descents are a roller coaster, but you have to earn them. You’ll also pass through several tunnels built out of ten-foot diameter pipes. Like the Back 40, the Little Sugar is made up of an outer loop and several other trails that cut through the middle to give riders plenty of options for routes.

Trails are Life

"These trails mean life to me, physically and mentally," hiker Jerry Brown says. We feel the same way. Yes, a lot of thought goes into building and maintaining trails but it's really about how they breathe life back into you; that is the magic. And that's our focus at Arkansas State Parks. #ARStateParks *Transcript is in comment below.
