Just a forest road with a few mud holes that were shallow and had gravel in them, so nothing to worry about. Easy drive with some elevation changes and a couple of spots of nice scenery. Otherwise, several cleared areas with logging equipment.

Sour Springs Trail can be accessed by the following ride types:

  • High Clearance
