The singletrack trail at Sunset Park (Eagle Trail) will offer significant challenges to mountain bikers and trail runners alike. Most of the trail is composed of open, flowing sections of singletrack with moderate to steep climbs that will test even the fittest athlete. Technical sections are relatively few, and can be found on the 'knob' west of the skate park, in the trees, and at 'broken stick' (look for the up/down 90 degree turn in a dense patch of Russian Olive). The trail has one bridge crossing (3 feet in width), and an optional jump near the northern turnaround point. This trail is appropriate for intermediate to advanced riders, and can be ridden in either direction. |

| Helpful Tips |
|
Be sure to do a 'tick check' once you are done riding/running from early spring to mid-summer |
|
Keep on the lookout for disc golfers. With 27 holes interspersed throughout the park, it's likely you'll come across a few |
|
Like most trails in the region, it's best to stay off this one when wet |
|
Technical sections and lots of climbing around the 'knob,' but you'll be rewarded with a great view once you get to the top |
