A mostly flat trail to the west side of a little branch of the Don River. Thanks to countless volunteer hours, the trail is quite ride-able, with wooden bridges, paving stones, cleared brush, and nice log rolls. The trail is more or less flat, with some twisty turns. Ride in both directions, but the flow is arguably better from north to south.

Beaver Flats is a classic bypass for Catalyst. When one sees a fork, just remember that Beaver stays quite close to the water, and generally does not climb very much.

Be wary of erosion along the river bank, especially after a storm. High water can also float trash onto the trail, so please help by carrying out a piece of garbage.

This trail is unsanctioned.
