This is the longest of the five loops at Heritage Park. It has nearly everything to offer in one continuous ride. There are a few difficult areas with large log roll-overs, several without ride-arounds. Boardwalks and skinnies will keep you out of the swampy stuff as you pedal.

On the other side of the Disc Golf Course, the Orange Loop - Bidirectional Section splits off the main loop to connect the parking area by the basketball courts (like the name implies, that's a two-way section).
