Trails are still under construction but open to be ridden.

Description

This is a new 80 acre park being built in the City of Petal, MS along the Leaf River. The trail winds through a gum lagoon and around three ponds through some fun, but technical rollers. There are many technical wooden features in the works, so get ready!

Future plans include: an advanced skills area, pump track, and an additional 15 miles of trail on an adjacent 80 acres.
