For a while I was living near Swanson park and visited it several years in a row. Sadly, last time I went there the manmade features, which did in fact exist, were in severe disarray. I nearly asked THOR about doing a renovation for my Eagle Scout project, but that didn't happen for a number of reasons.

Swanson has a lot of climbing, somewhat rewarded if you can manage fast downhills. Also agree with the river side of Manawa having a green xc area. Not a fan of the big switchback climb at Tranquility, but it was necessary for erosion. I much preferred just getting on it and going straight up to get it over with :)

I referenced this and other videos before coming here. I've been severly disapointed in these trails. Most of the trails are so short you spend more time driving to these locations than riding (the laps are short so expect the same thing over and over again). The other thing that bothered me was your black trails are more like greens with some blue features and a drop. Calling this a Omaha sleeper hotspot is a stretch. Lastly, you should be mentioning the park fees while not exaggerating the drive time.

Did you give Lewis and Clark a shot? That one is best for sessions as every fun line has shortcuts for lapping them. I put in 10-15 miles of sessioning every ride. Also, Platte River is the only trail that requires a pass. What are you used to?

@@omahamtb6580 Agreed, L&C is free and about 15 minutes from downtown. It has expert-level free-ride features that seem to challenge even the YT guys from Colorado, although it lacks the well put-together consideration of modern flow trails in Bentonville. I've been riding the milder trails in Omaha for years and there is plenty at L&C that will probably always be above my skill.

@@smog24 understand your perspective. We don't have continuous connected mtb trails around here.
