Neighborhood connector between Duluth's Craft District, the Duluth Traverse, and Enger Tower.

The bottom of this trail lands you squarely among many of Duluth's best post-ride beverage and food purveyors. Climbing this trail to Enger Tower will burn off at least half of your IPA. The descent has many features and b-lines, including one 'orange pill' (big drop) that is clearly marked.

Access Info

Park at the top in the Enger park lot, or park on-street somewhere in the craft district to start with a climb.
