Description

Parking: There is parking at either end of this trail. The Marriottsville Rd. 2 entrance has a small lot for 4-5 cars. The Marriottsville Rd. parking lot has enough parking for 10+ cars.

This trail has a little bit of everything: rocks, roots, rolling climbs, and descents as the trail alternates between tight singletrack and open doubletrack. There are several exits which can be seen via other trails labeled Way Out 1 and Way Out 2.

You'll also travel just below the Liberty Reservoir dam, which holds back approximately 48 billion gallons of water. It's an impressive sight.

Great trail. Lots of twits and turns. Pretty much what you expect from an east coast woods trail. 5mi

Ran this from below the dam, took a few wrong turns and ended up incorporating the shortcut to make a lollipop. Trail is great, a little overgrown… 7.2mi — 1h 28m
