Middleden Trails Kirkcaldy

Description

Middleden Trails are a set of mountain bike trails in Middleden Woods just opposite Kirkcaldy High School in Kirkaldy Scotland. There is a set of short green, blue, and red-graded trails as well as orange-graded dirt jumps and a pump track. The trails are about 5km in total. They can be linked mixed and matched together

Green Revolver MTB Trail

• Nice short family or beginner trail running through the forest.

Blue MTB Trails

• The blue tracks can be connected using the multi-use paths. 'Pistol Whip' is a flowing singletrack trail running through the forest. Using the multi-use path you climb to the start of the 'Take Aim' track which has flowing singletrack and a slightly raised (6 inches) boardwalk. Then you head back on the multi-user trails to the 'Barrell Roll' track joining on the left which is fast, flowing with many berms, tight corners, and a water feature. Then back on the main path to return.

Red MTB Trails

• These kick-off just off from the Green trail. Starting with the 'Get A Grip' track it is twisty with dips and climbs. Then you can head on to the 'Trigger Trail 'which is more technical with drop-offs, roots, and boardwalk. Finally, on the way back to the entrance, there is 'The Deer Track' with short climbs, tight Singletrack, and flowing rolling jumps on its descent.

Bike Park (Orange)

• There is a Pump Track and 3 dirt jumps.
