Several trails depart from Forsythe Park, making it an excellent place for variety in your cycling adventure. This network of beginner/intermediate mountain biking trails provide riders with just enough challenge, all while taking in the lush scenery along the Ouachita River. The singletrack trail consists of tight turns and technical elements, and the terrain is relatively flat with no significant climbs or descents.

You might consider a hike through Chemin-A-Haut State Park after your ride. The red-dirt bluffs overlook Bayou Bartholomew, where paddlers often kayak. Later, visit the Biedenharn Museum & Gardens, where you can connect with nature outside and learn about the history of Coca-Cola from the family that founded it.
