Reviewed 2026-10-22. Fresh municipal trail GIS identifies the selected named asphalt path as summer multi-use, which the manager defines to include ordinary bicycles. This is mapped-use and surface evidence, not a present-day pavement or snow inspection. Follow current park signs, active event controls and barriers; keep off ski tracks and the pond.
