A surprisingly easy access to a most challenging mtn biking venue. But there are trails for all levels.

This has been revised as all access to Ringwood directly from NY State is now deemed illegal due to private property concerns.
The single track is quite rideable, but you will either need to keep an eye open for changing trail markings or follow your prompts on your GPS device. But understand that the places the trail marking change on the map are approximate.
Water is in restrooms at Skylands Manor area on map.

Note: subsequent to the posting of this ride, the trail in Ninham SP has been altered. A new foot trail begins off Gipsy Trail where the section described below begins as well. The new trail obscures the old route to Coles Mills Road. Should someone sort this out, please get back to me with details. In the meantime, should you become flustered, just ride up the access road to the parking lot on the road to the fire tower and continue the route. HS 4/27/2021
