About the Trail

Why is it called the Party Route? Because every mile is a party. And when the ride is over, you can duck into the lodge for some food and a cold one.

This out-and-back route is nearly root-free and follows the scenic Pleasant Hill Dam. Expect your share of climbs, switchbacks, and descents, along with a few technical sections to keep things interesting. The return trip delivers some fun, fast descents, while plenty of rollers along the way offer opportunities to catch some air.

Keep an eye out for deer—they're frequent spectators on this route. You'll also encounter rock features and drops scattered throughout the ride, adding a little extra spice to the party.
