Description

One of the newest trails at BMP, Chestnut can be accessed near the Nature Center or at the intersection of Azalea Trail and Big Oak Trail. It is a 1.5 mile-long traverse along the northwest side of Bays Mountain.

Chestnut is a smooth trail that rolls straight and fast in places but is broken up nicely by a tight corridor and grade reversals.
