Flat Creek Road

This mostly dirt trail connects Low Gap Road to Vandiver Mountain Road and is a lightly traveled route. While the beginning and end sections are relatively manageable, much of the trail contains washouts and obstacles that can present challenges for some vehicles. Conditions become significantly more difficult after rain, as many of the washouts run directly down the center of the trail, and entering from Lower Gap Road means tackling the majority of the obstacles uphill. Drivers should come prepared with appropriate recovery gear and travel with additional vehicles as needed, based on their experience level for spotting and recovery assistance. Cell service in this area is generally reliable. This trail is recommended only for higher clearance vehicles.
