Klonzo South Trails, Intermediate TOUR
loop
This loop is for intermediate riders, 7.0 miles in length. It uses a portion of Borderline and the Zoltar trail from northern Klonzo, then Houdini, Redhot, Roller Coaster, Topspin, Midway, and The Edge from southern Klonzo. The Klonzo system has over 18 miles of trail of varying difficulty. From this loop, it's easy to link to some easy cruising in the Carousel area, or harder riding north in the Wahoo area. |
