A new 14th trail, 'Flipside', has opened at the Langford Gravity Zone and Nature Trails Park, located at 4100 West Shore Pwy.

A new bike trail has Langford bike enthusiasts in a spin.

Spanning 750 metres, packed full of jumps, berms, and flow trail sections, the new ‘Flipside’ trail promises an exhilarating experience, says the City of Langford

Classed as an intermediate ‘blue flow’ trail, suitable for mid-level riders, ‘Flipside’ is the 14th trail to be added to the Langford Gravity Zone and Nature Trails Park, located at  4100 West Shore Pwy.

"This new trail is an exciting addition to our growing community and supports our efforts of positioning Langford as a destination for biking and outdoor recreation in British Columbia," said Mayor Scott Goodmanson in a news release.

Accessible from the ‘Wonderland’ access trail, ‘Flipside’ connects to the southern parking lot located at 4200 West Shore Pkwy, along the ‘Steam Donkey’ access trail. 

Hailed as a popular spot for residents and visitors by the city, the Gravity Zone and Nature Trails Park, along with the Jordie Lunn Bike Park, offers a combination of dirt jumps, pump track, skills area and hiking and mountain bike trails all in one central destination.

With a growing population, the city is looking ahead and will soon seek resident input on the community's vision for its parks and green spaces.

"In the coming weeks, the city will be seeking community input for the Parks and Trails Master Plan. This feedback will guide future planning decisions to enhance our parks and outdoor spaces,” said Goodmanson.
