Listen now
Description
Join us as we recount the hidden treasures of the Genesee County Park and Forest, where the whispers of history meet the laughter of today’s adventures. In this episode, we’ve trotted down memory lanes and carved new paths, experienced the thrill of discovery, and the joy of companionship with our trusty steeds, Tuna and Harley. We navigated through the park’s sprawling beauty, tested by the terrain but never bested. We’ve learned valuable lessons about preparation, perseverance, and the park’s quirks – like the elusive horse-friendly trails and the park staff’s curious mowing habits.

Large enough for small groups with smart parking Distance – 5+ miles of horse trails. Challenges – I would NOT advise attempting to drive the boundary trail from the parking area to the wetlands in most 2 wheeled vehicles . The land has an aggressive  slope and may cause a turn-over.  Work around is driving down the park road and gaining access to wetlands or fire breaks from there. This detour may also be useful to riders as the steep hills can be slick in less than ideal footing. Rochester Trail Riders https://www.rochestertrailriders.com
