This trail is a good intermediate mountain bike ride, with just enough
up and down to present a challenge -- but not so much as to make it truly
difficult. NOTE: bicycles are not allowed on the Kaymoor Trail past the
mine site.
From Kaymoor Top it is 4.2 miles to the Kaymoor Mine and 7.2 miles to
Cunard. From Cunard, it is 6.7 miles to the Kaymoor Mine and 7.3 miles to
Kaymoor Top.
