On the west side of the 435 loop, exit at 87th street. Go west to Renner Rd. and then north to the park entrance at 79th Street. Turn west into the park and turn right through the gates shortly after entering. Follow this road until it comes to a T. At the T turn right and continue about a quarter mile to the Marina Parking lot across the road from the tennis courts. The entrance to the trail is just west of the drinking fountain. There is a gate at the edge of the woods indicating if the trails are open or closed due to wet conditions.

Shawnee Mission Park has been a destination for local mountain bikers for over 20 years. This trail system has recently been completely rebuilt. The old rutted and eroded fall line trails that would stay muddy for weeks after a rain have been replaced by fast, flowing, buff singletrack.

Orange (2.5 miles) - Orange is the easiest loop, beginners may find the rockier sections challenging.

Violet (2 miles) - violet is a more difficult trail, it has a nice XC downhill section from V to W, and from V to Z riders will find extremely technical rocky sections, so please ride within your abilities.

Red (.5 miles) - the Red trail is the newest section of trail and will be opened in stages. Currently the trail is only 1/2 mile in length but will grow quickly over the next couple of trail building seasons. In its final state this trail will be close to 5 miles in length and will be the most difficult loop.
