Description

Tarr Ridge is a great ridge-top ride following an old logging road out the crest of the ridge. At the south end, the trail culminates at an incredible overlook. The overgrown road passes through pine groves, open hardwood forest and along narrow sections of ridge. This is a great, easy ride in a nice setting.
