With a slew of berms, rollers, hips, and table top jumps, Lower Corral Trail has been a signature project built by TAMBA in partnership with the Forest Service since 2014. The first build was in 2014 with subsequent builds in 2015 and 2017. Out here you will find the most legal features including log rides, jumps and rock rolls in South Tahoe including the new jumps, berms, rollers and hips. Please donate if you want to see more

This is a motorized trail, so you might see dirt bikes and ebike out here. But the trail is primary downhill, uphill travel is not recommended. Ride up Cedar or the paved Fountain Place Road to loop it.
