Description

This is a fairly easy trail ( especially when compared to other trails in the area) but it is a enjoyable ride through some beautiful drainages and gives you a few great views of Grandfather Mountain. There is nothing very technical except maybe a few of the small rideable water crossings. This trail is rideable either way but most ride it east to west starting of off SR 90 (look for the yellow mailbox) and end on Brown Mountain Beach Rd.
