Mad Cow Trail

Highlight • Trail

Quite loose with grape seed sized gravel that my 2.2’s sunk right into. Not a fast trail for me. Many babyheads that gave a few pedal strikes. Plenty of thorny bits so tubeless is advised.

Small wooden bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Tip by

The Lazy Cow Trail is a multi-use trail enjoyed by hikers, mountain bikers, and bird watchers. It is a dog-friendly trail and open year round, although September-May is the optimal time for hiking in this area due to hot, dry summer weather. Aptly named, the Lazy Cow Trail is considerably easy, and offers visitors a closer look at some of the area's native plants and wildlife.

Bring a real flashlight. The tunnel goes back into the mountain. I’m
Not sure how far. Dangerous fall spots seemed very well protected
