Description

Far East starts off of Transfarm in the easternmost section of the Knoxville Urban Wilderness and connects to Burnett Creek Road. It starts with a short climb and goes through two gates before reaching the main downhill section. The trail is carved out of the rocky hillside, has very tight switchbacks, is off camber in a few sections and will challenge even the most experienced riders. This trail can be used in conjunction with Burnett Creek Road, Transfarm, Creek Loop, and Chainring to add some extra mileage to a standard Knoxville Urban Wilderness Trail System - South Loop ride.
