Limited parking here, especially on Sundays when the train depot is giving rides, I suggest parking at Lasalle Middle School.

2.5 miles from Al Foster to Sherman Beach trail head. This is where you can begin choosing various routes to ride or run.

Location: 38.538970, -90.571330
This path is mostly single track and lives up to its name, stinging nettle. If riding your shins will be stung quite often!

Location: 38.542680, -90.567310
If you go directly to your left you will go onto Cedar Bluff loop, this is a very hilly and rocky route. See "Al Foster to Cedar Bluff" for details of this trail.
