Supernatural Singletrack is a 3.8-mile out-and-back trail in the Mt. Shasta Ranger District of Shasta-Trinity National Forest in California. The route gains about 430 feet, from a low of roughly 5,229 feet to a high of about 5,674 feet, and is rated moderate. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail is open year-round. The singletrack is a natural-surfaced route, and it is open to bikes. That makes it a versatile option for both hikers and riders. The climb is spread across the full length of the trail, so the ascent and descent each take about half the route. The trail sits close to several other destinations. Bear Springs and Steam Donkey are both about half a mile away. Climbers can find Byron's Boulder about 2.1 miles off, and McBride Springs Campground is about 2.7 miles away.
