This park is awesome, and it's free and open to the general public. It's open from dawn to dusk, and it's back behind the Timbers of Eureka. Several trails range from beginner to intermediate. There are restrooms and a covered pavilion right next to it, but the restrooms are closed for the winter. Beware of mud- I took my daughter a couple of days after heavy rain, and there was a lot of mud from the bike tires in the back of our SUV! 

To see more photos and bikers in action check out their Facebook page. What a great addition to Eureka! My daughter loved riding her bike here and watching older kids do jumps and tricks.
