There are many trails in the communal park lands in San Pablo Etla that cry out to be ridden by mountain bikers. Shown below is a track utilizing a couple of these trails to form a loop. This loop ride is rated moderately difficult, both in terms of physical and technical challenges. It will give you a good workout and sharpen your bike handling skills. The ride is 12.4 miles (20 km) long and features an elevation gain / loss of 3370 feet (1027 meters). It is rated “Moderate to Difficult” because of its physical and technical demands.
The start / end point is the home of Carl Silverberg, a gringo who lived in the area for many years and worked hard to build this and other nearby trails. Sadly, Carl moved back to the U.S. in 2015. We miss his leadership and enthusiasm for mountain biking.
There is a user fee to access the park lands, which can be paid at the visitor’s center in the park.
