Trail Overview

At only 1 miles long, the trail offers scenic views at the top, small rocky ledges, small ruts, and (its namesake) 52 rain humps put in to control erosion. Whether ran top to bottom or the other way, the trail is a fun one. When wet, the trail can be very tricky. There is a spot of two of clay that it very slippery when wet. No major obstacles on this trail. 4-Low is not required but it recommended for some areas for better control.

Access Description

The trail is entered from the bottom of Red Bench Road from St. Louis Valley Road (east) or Highway 309 (west). If coming east from Sorghum Hollow Road, use care at Big Shoal Creek, as this water crossing can be deep and has a large rock in it. Stay as far upstream when crossing, and you should be good. From the top, the trail is entered from Rich Mountain Byway off Rich Mountain Road near Highway 309.
