The Trail Steward for DRP has marked a loop of trails with wooden stakes painted at the top with fluorescent pink. The “pink loop” trails are a combination of green (easy) and blue (moderate) ranked trails to loop from the parking lot trail entrance and back. It may be utilized counterclockwise or clockwise.

The counterclockwise route utilizes Kaleidoscope which is a great start for new riders. From there the newly EXTENDED Big Easy may be used to the upper grass fields. There is even a “Big Easy Out” that allows you to bale out on the ascent by taking the easy out that will pop out to Gully leading back down to Kaleidoscope.

The main intention is to provide riders who are new to the park the opportunity to get a full view of most trail intersections throughout the park while following a marked loop, knowing they will always make it home if they follow the pink stakes.

Keep an eye out for fluorescent yellow painted stakes that will be loop trails starting and returning to the pink loop. They will descend and ascend blue (moderate) and black (difficult) trails to provide more experienced riders a challenging view of the parks other trails all connecting back to the pink loop to lead you out when needed.
