The trail is 1.2 miles long.  As you begin your walk near the tennis courts, the winding trail takes you along the perimeter of the park.  You'll cross over an access bridge which allows you to continue walking, looping around by the back end of the Frisbee Golf Course, then back over the bridge to the start of the trail.  Please come out, take a walk, and let us know what you think.  Just look for the directional signs.

Mountain Bike Trail 

Newtown Park's single track mountain bike trail measures six tenths of a mile in length and is geared towards beginning riders.  The trail, which is located off the Newtown Park Road access before the pond, includes safety and educational signs.  

This project is the result of a partnership between WCRP and both the Worcester County and the Eastern Shore chapter of the International Mountain Bike Association (ESIMBA).  The trail build was organized by Tres Denk, President of the ESIMBA, and Maryland Conservation Crew of Assateague and Maryland Coastal Kids program volunteers helped build the trail.  The Mountain Bike Trail is open to public.
