Description

A short connector trail from Village Fitness to the Gateway Loop. About 200 yards into the trail, you'll see a fork. Right goes to the Gateway Trail on the Desert Park Trail. Left takes you to the Gateway Loop Trail.

The very flat, somewhat rocky terrain dips down into a couple of washes before connecting in.
