This was previously listed under P1 but is worth a separate mention. It is very much less technical but has features and challenges to engage people new to the sport. Very well maintained. Courtesy of Singletracks.com
The Beginner loop trail is located across the street from Phase 1 trail parking lot. The trail can be rode in any direction. It is good for riders new to the sport or as a warm up before hitting the Alum Creek Phase 1 Trail. The trail was built and is maintained by COMBA (Central Ohio Mountain Bike Association).

Never modify trail features. Ride trails when they're dry enough that you won't leave ruts. Speak up when you see others on the trail and always yield to hikers, horses, and others coming uphill. Always ride on the established trail.
