Technical trail features, such as rock gardens, log piles, skinnies, and a pump track can be found alongside the trail throughout the system. In addition to the mountain bike trail, Lakeshore Park also features an extensive network of wider trails suited to walking, family biking, and cross-country skiing. The trail head and information kiosk is located at the south end of Lakeshore Park (601 South Lake Drive). Note that motorized vehicles are not permitted anywhere on park property.
