Skeggs Point

Highlight • Viewpoint

Popular meeting point for mountain bike rides along Skyline and El Corte de Madera Preserve on the West. Sweeping views from the overlook to the East.

Tip by

1.48 km

Upper El Corte de Madera Creek Crossing

Highlight • Bridge

If it wasn't for the beautiful wooden trail bridge, on a swift descent this upper crossing could be missed as it is just a small trickle most of the time. There are three more crossing as the various trails descend into the preserve.

Resolution Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Great flowy single track trail with a few rocky sections, named after the Australian DC6 plane "Resolution" that crashed here in 1953

Giant Salamander Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Giant Salamander Trail is a sweet swooping single track between Timberview and Methuselah Trail just before it bottoms out at the Corte de Madera creek. Loop options: komoot.com/tour/13400112 , komoot.com/tour/10597358

Tip by

23.5 km

Methuselah Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Methuselah trail initially continues the wonderfully single track flowing downhill bliss of El Corte De Madera Creek Trail and North Leaf Trail to the bottom at the two wooden bridges crossing the creek, then it climbs back up to Skyline Blvd, initially as a single track, then as a steep but wider fire road to a 4-way crossing: to the left Manzanita and Fir Trails can take you back to Skeggs Parking or just to the beginning of the loop -- where you can do it all again :-)
Or take Manzanita Trail right to Gordon Mill Trail for another sweet loop.
To see or follow the whole loop, check out komoot.com/tour/10597358 or another loop option: komoot.com/tour/13400112

Fir Trail 🚵 (1: Skyline - Manzanita)

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This first section of Fir Trail from the trailhead to the intersection with Manzanita Trail is a fairly level and wide trail under a shady tree canopy. It serves as the return from the El Corte De Madera - North Leaf - Methuselah - Manzanita Trails loop.
Past the intersection with Tafoni Trail (see komoot.de/highlight/201306 ) Fir becomes a single track to the intersection of Resolution Trail, before continuing to drop down to Methuselah trail near the bottom crossing of El Corte De Madera creek.
To see other segments or higlights of this loop, check out komoot.de/tour/13400112 . For a loop via El Corte De Madera Creek Trail see: komoot.de/tour/10597358
