A flowier alternative to the Rock Lake Loop.
The Namakagon Loop offers a slightly easier alternative to the nearby Rock Lake trail. This singletrack loop is much less rocky and instead offers fast, flowy singletrack hidden deep beneath the canopy of the northwoods. Sections of wide-open singletrack beg you to get up on the pedals and hammer, but you need to be ready to lean into the impending corner to keep your speed up!
CAMBA has been reworking some of the corners on the Namakagon Trail to make them flow better and for the trail to be much more bike-friendly overall. Despite the trail work, you'll still be reminded that this is a mountain bike ride! Roots and rocks can be found throughout the trail, and while this is definitely a cross-country ride, be prepared to negotiate a few technical challenges.
For an even longer ride that incorporates the Namakagon Loop, be sure to check out the Rock Lake IMBA Epic. Written by Greg Heil
