Description

A classic trail in Wythe County that's full of steep, short ridge line climbs and technical downhills. It can be ridden as a loop from the campground to the day use area, with a short road ride back to the campground, or vice versa.

When deciding which way to go, it is useful to know that the trailhead side isn't quite as steep and is a little wider. Decide if you want that on the climb or the decent. Overall, the trail isn't very technical but there are a couple of high consequence areas. They can easily be walked if necessary.

Started the loop from the Stoney Fork Campground. The first 1.5 miles is brutal. Totally worth the downhill portion. Took the paved road back 3 miles 8.4mi — 0h 59m
