Miwok Trail is a short, flat mountain biking route in California's Golden Gate National Recreation Area, managed by the National Park Service. It is an easy ride with no elevation gain, so it works well as a quick outing or a warm-up before heading to other trails in the area. The most comfortable months for riding are late spring and early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Kentfield show May highs around 74°F and October highs around 76°F, with only a few wet days in each. Summer runs warmer, with July and August highs near 83°F and almost no rain. Middle Green Gulch Trail and Dias Ridge Trail are both within about 2 miles, and the Coast View Trail is about 4.4 miles away. For climbing, Mount Tamalpais sits roughly 5 miles off.
