Bay Area Mags - Butano State Park trails??

[Ottime]

Does anyone out there have information on bike trails in Butano State Park - or any other area on the coast between San Francisco and Santa Cruz 9other than Wilder). My wife and her friend are trying to hook up somewhere half way inbetween for a *nice* ride - nothing too grueling. SIngle track is great, but fire roads will do.

There is no mention of Bike trails @ Butano on the CA Parks Website or a trail review on MTBR so probably no not.


I would send them to Skeggs.

Not really on the coast, but probably not more than a half hour inland, I would check out El Corte de Madera on the penninsula outside of Redwood Cityish, Saratoga Gap/Skyline/Monte Bello open space preserves further south, and Soquel Demonstration Forest down by Santa Cruz.

El Corte de Madera = Skeggs = epic and awesome.

If they venture south of Santa Cruz, they could go to Nicene Marks in Aptos for fire roads in redwoods, or Demonstration Forest to the north/east of Nicene for singletrack.
