Description

Shiner's Run is a short, berm-filled ribbon of trail that was added after the Overmountain Victory Trail was completed to Bandit's Roost. It is among the most popular sections of trail at Kerr Scott.

A great option to ride either direction, Shiner's adds nice mileage to an an out and back on the OVT. From the Visitor's Center, you'll get to Shiner's just over 1.5 miles from the trailhead.
