Closed 1 weekend a year for youth deer hunt.

Description

A dozen miles of fine Southeast Ohio singletrack, intermingled with horse trails and hiking paths. Starts with an easy flat loop (not pictured) and progressing uphill through a rocky climb. Continues in an up and down profile out and back, with lakeside sections, briges and plenty of opportunity for fast, flowy fun.

Several rock gardens of various sizes are scattered around the trail, primarily in the western part of the system. A pair of expert sections (not pictured) also branch off from the western part of the system. Plenty of roots to enjoy, as these are mature trails who have seen their share of riders over the years but still hold up very well.

As a bonus, the trail are currently undergoing restoration and improvement by the AOA, the local club responsible for the trails.

Most excellent. Second only to Bailey's. Natural rock and man made mix. Good flow throughout. A couple tough climbs but worth it.
