Description

Mobbs Hill hosts a variety of trails suitable for walking and biking. A technically advanced 3.5 mile mountain bike loop titled the "Americana" trail winds its way among other multi-use trails. The Americana trail is characterized by steep ascents and descents, technical single track, some small drop-offs, and a couple areas of exposure on the "Lost Island" section (please be aware that signage is minimal at this time). This is a trail that will make the more advanced rider gleeful and the less advanced rider mighty nervous.

Other Information

You can get better maps from the the Town of Jericho's Mobbs Farm website. There is minimal signage once you are on the trails.
