Description
Running through the center of Sunderbruch Park in Davenport, IA, is the 1.3-mile paved multi-use path. The path travels through a mix of fields and beautiful wooded areas and is appropriate for walking, running, and bicycling. Equestrian users can also ride on this path to connect to off-pavement riding trails throughout the park, while enjoying 4.5 miles of horse-friendly trails.
Sunderbruch Park is considered the crown jewel of off-road riding in Davenport, with seven miles of singletrack mountain biking trails and a full gamut of difficulty levels (green to black diamond). Sunderbruch’s beginner trails boast 2 miles of the most beautiful wooded scenery found in Davenport and test riders with a few small, beginner log crossings, one ladder bridge, and one corduroy feature. Intermediate trails offer riders moderate changes in elevation, some rooted and off-camber terrain, a variety of corduroy sections and log-crossings, and large wooden berms and other wooden structures. Advanced/Expert trails greet riders with fast descents and challenging climbs, creek crossings, some narrow winding trails, roots, skinnies, drops, and a plethora of logs. Sunderbruch has something to meet every rider’s interest. You will not go home disappointed! All trails also allow hiking, except for Jump Line and Kickapoo Down (as noted in map pop-ups).
Other park amenities include nature areas and a reservable picnic shelter.
