Trail Overview

Daughtry ln starts out as a nice gravel road for about 2 miles. There's a couple creek crossings which one can get deep and fast moving. Once you've crossed the creek you'll go through a field and meet up with Sheltowee Trace Trail for licensed vehicles and anything in-between. This part has some mud holes and some rocky sections. Once you've gone about 3 miles on the trail you'll come to another gravel road, which will take you the Beattyville to Livingston Trail.

Status Reports

Great trail, with a little bit of everything. There’s one area with a pretty narrow spot near the end due to some washout. Full size vehicles can make it, but carefully. Some rocks climbs, water crossings, and steep descents. I did the entire trail in 2WD, the person I was with had to use 4WD in a couple spots. There are some trees laying, but we just drove over.

Pretty easy ride. 4wd only needed in 1-2 spots. Would recommend a higher clearance vehicle.

Fun trail, only needed 4wd once in a stock JL on 33” M/T’s
