Miwok Trail

Miwok Trail is a short, easy mountain biking route in Golden Gate National Recreation Area, managed by the National Park Service. It is about 0.9 miles long, and the out-and-back ride gains about 480 feet, from a low point of 188 feet to a high of 701 feet. The trail falls within the park's land boundaries. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to ride. Typical averages from the Kentfield weather station, about 6 miles away, show May highs around 74°F and October highs near 76°F, while summer brings the fewest wet days, about one a month in July and August. That station sits well below the trail, so expect cooler temperatures on the climb. Other mountain biking routes lie close by: Dias Ridge Trail is about 1.2 miles away, and Middle Green Gulch Trail is about 1.5 miles off. For a hike, Tamelpa Trail is about 3.7 miles away, and the climbing area at Mount Tamalpais is about 4.5 miles away.
