just South-west of Madison, this trail is ideal if your interesting
in maybe getting into this mountain biking thing, but aren't sure
what you are ready for yet.

lights at the bottom of the off ramp, and then take an immediate
left into the park.
- County Park trail pass required (daily trail fee is $3, annual fee is $15, payable at the
park. Annual passes are good at all County and City of Madison parks).

Cam-Rock County Park

'98, this trail is a much more technical than Badger Prairie, but can
still be ridden by most riders. Dane County Parks Service is currently
working on expanding the park, as well as the mountain bike trails!
- Steep doubletrack hills, technical wooded singletrack.
Intermediate to advanced.

across the bridge in Rockdale and bear straight and follow the curve
to the right.. The park entrance is halfway up the hill on your
right.

Quarry Park
- An old rock quarry almost in the heart of the city. Not very large
but exceedingly technical. Most riders would think of this as more
like 'trials' style riding than anything that would normally be
considered 'mountain biking' but, it is a fun place in the city
to go riding, and polish up your technical skills.
- Quarry Park is located on Madison's near west
side, just south of Whole Foods market on University Ave.
- These trails are shared use, please be aware of hikers and dogs.
