Trail Overview

Come on down to Johnston and enjoy this short, relaxing backcountry drive. The route starts with a gravel and sand mix before transitioning into classic red clay. Settle in as you pass through peach field-lined roads that roll into tree-covered forest corridors and abandoned barns that have fallen to time. You'll hit a very short stretch of pavement before dropping back into rougher terrain filled with potholes, mud, and a few small hill climbs to keep things interesting
