The trailhead is located at Harmony Ridge Market in Nevada City and stretches along Highway 20 until the Omega Diggins Overlook with expansive views of the Sierra. This point-to-point trail is heavily trafficked at the start but thins out as you cover more distance. The trail is best enjoyed from April to November with snow and mud limiting riding throughout the winter months.

The trail begins at Magnolia Ranch in Pilot Hill which is a moderately trafficked destination for hikers, bikers and horse riders with scenic views of the American River. The winding trail has a satisfying mix of flats interspersed with medium-intensity climbs and flowy downhills. Best enjoyed in the temperate weather of spring or fall.

Starting at the Harmony Ridge Market in Nevada City navigate across the highway to head down the Scott's Flat Lake Trail. Enjoy a fast switchback descent on the singletrack portion called Scott's Drop. After taking in the views of Scott's Flat Lake, begin the uphill grind via Casci Road which is a mix of paved, dirt and gravel fire road. Once back at Highway 20 cross over to pick back up at Pioneer Trail and head west to complete the loop.

The trail switchbacks down the ridge until reaching Rock Creek Road where riders climb up a gradual paved ascent back to the trailhead along Highway 20. Best enjoyed from April to November, but beware of dust and ruts in peak summer.

Trails meander through nearly a century of Gold Rush history with hardrock mining artifacts along the popular routes traveled by walkers, bikers and equestrians. Short segments make up a total of 14 miles of doubletrack trail throughout the park that can be combined to make routes for riders of all skill levels. Because the park is heavily trafficked, extra consideration should be made on descents, around blind corners, and when passing from behind.

Take a shuttle from the Tunnel Creek Cafe up to Spooner Lake to begin a scenic ride that ends with breathtaking views of Lake Tahoe. There is an initial steep climb but the remainder of the trail is mostly flat which allows you to soak in the scenery. The trail is a mix of hardpacked and loose sand and has some narrow portions with steep drop-offs that will be more comfortably walked by less confident riders. The trail returns at the Tunnel Creek Cafe where riders can swap stories and photos over some hard earned food and drinks.
