Trail Overview

This is a bi-directional trail that connects Little Coon River Trail to Poplar Springs Trail. When running from Little Coon River Trail, you will start out by climbing up an area of large slick rock and dirt. Some areas on the elevation change will be loose rock that can cause some traction issues. There will be a few sharp turns and then the trail will have smaller rocks with a steady incline. There are a few areas where there will be some slick areas during times of rain. This is an easier trail that can be done without lockers normally. The trail is prone to having more trees fall than the surrounding trails so be prepared to remove the tree to continue or turn around. This trail does continue on into Tennessee but there is a turnaround at the state line where you can go back and complete the Poplar Springs Trail.
