Ashland Watershed Trails start in Lithia Park. By riding up Granite St for 0.8 miles, you continue on Ashland Loop Rd which turns into RD2060. The loop begins with 7.7 miles of climbing on a gravel road. But from this location, you can choose to loop back to Lithia Park, (15 miles) or take the many single track, grin inducing trails back down to Lithia Park, my choice. The single track trials are named Catwalk, Toothpick, Catapillar, White Rabbit, Alice in Wonderland, BTI, Mad Hatter. They are intermediate to advanced trails.

A shuttle can be set up with one car in the parking lot of Ashland Ski Area and ride a 10 mile downhill through Bull Gap and into Lithia Park.

When to Bike

Winter is tough because the snow comes down and it takes awhile to melt because it is a shady area. Spring, summer, fall are excellent
