Trail Overview
This little shortcut from New River Trail to the Road to Nowhere will not disappoint. There are great views and steep climbs and descents. Some of this trail is a shelf road and has some washouts. High-clearance vehicles are required. Make sure you close the gates and watch out for the horses and cows.
