F. Gilbert Hills State Forest (Foxboro)Foxboro is open year-round, making it a great place to ride during the winter months. As you get further around the loop (riding counter-clockwise) the trail gets harder and harder, until you reach a two mile stretch of continuous rock gardens and hills which will challenge any rider. As a reward, after the last bridge, the trail races back to the parking lot on a fast downhill road with some fun jumps.Dan Fostertrails@topografix.comhttp://www.nemba.org/ridingzone/p_Foxboro_State_Forest.htmlFoxboro description at NEMBAfoxboro, gilbert hills, mountain biking97.4445601942DotDot99.3952801903DotDot104.180640099393DotDot122.9258400977DotDot111.4044000996DotDot120.0607201932DotDot135.178800099342DotDot130.6372800952DotDot126.3091200951DotDot115.9764000846DotDot98.4199200846DotDot102.5042400855DotDot117.6528000851DotDot101.3155200799DotDot104.4244801811DotDot88.818720SPLIT TREEA wierd tree with a hole through the trunkParktreeACORNTRAILAcorn TrailTrail HeadHiking TrailACORN TR 2Acorn Trail #2 crosses the Megley TrailTrail HeadHiking Trail114.513360BC SPLITB AND C LOOPS SPLITB and C Loops Split.
