Trail Overview
This is a public access dirt road that makes up a portion of the famed, Tennessee Dirt Devil. While not particularly challenging, trail riders will enjoy a gorgeous winding trail through a lush forest and little to no traffic leading to a peaceful drive. Several elevation changes occur which can result in washouts following rain so be on the lookout for new, uneven terrain. Several switchbacks with a series of elevation changes make for a fun portion. The surrounding property off the roadway is private property so be sure to stay on the road at all times and practice Tread Lightly standards to help maintain relationships with the local community.
