Wooded singletrack, berms, bridges and rocky features set in rolling Ohio forest—great for action shots of riders, textured trail close-ups, and seasonal foliage. Best light is golden hour or overcast afternoons for even forest light; autumn offers peak color. Trails are reachable from the Union Rd parking lot (no gate fee typical for MetroParks); expect uneven footing and active cyclists—stay on trails and yield. Weekday mornings are quieter; bring a short telephoto and stout hiking shoes.
