Part of the Three Springs trails system.
Switcher Loop is a beginner-friendly moderate loop in the Three Springs Spur Line trail system. The beginning of Switcher Loop, directly from the parking area, is a kid-friendly bike pump track. This pump track was built to provide the Durango and Three Springs area a pump track open to beginners.
The sustainable design of these trails is intended for introductory mountain bikers of all ages. Durango Trails will continue trailwork in Three Springs, including the addition of a Northern trail that will connect to Cowboy, Sidewinder and Horse Gulch.
Check out the Pre-Flight Pump Track Skills Checklist video from Rocky Knob Mountain Bike Park in Boone, NC to have sure you are prepared before heading out.
