I rode there the other day and I think it was about 5.5 miles. I usualy ride all the loops then ride the bottom trails backwards. The Cats Pajamas is one way only, so I ride it normal. Doing that will get you about 11 miles.

Jared, you can download the map here

The trailhead is very easy to find, if you are coming into Hampton on 19E hang a left on 321 like you're going to the bike shop or lake. Take a right at the first intersection. Follow this road pass through one more intersection and the trailhead is on the left. Sorry, I'm not familar with all the road names but if you can't find it stop in and ask Brian White, it's within riding distance of his shop.

Matt Young just recently constructed a new kiosk at the trailhead.

Thanks Greg.

Any idea how the trails hold up to the rain we've been having this week? I'm thinking about checking them out this weekend if they weather the rain well.

Also, what's the best route? I see the one trail is directional, but what about the rest of it.

I would say the trails will be frozen and good to go. As far as the direction, they ride well either way except for the Cat's PJs. I tend to ride them in a counter clockwise direction
