Pettiford Creek Trail 6

Trail Overview

This offshoot from the Pettiford Creek Main Trail connects to the Pettiford Creek Eastern Entrance. The trail consists primarily of sandy double-track, with a few scattered mud pits that add some challenge but are smaller than most in Pettiford Creek State Forest, making this route relatively easy. While there are a few narrow sections, they are manageable even for full-size vehicles. A small stretch of loose sand is present, but is less challenging than other areas in the forest. Several offshoots can be found along the way, including Pettiford Creek Trail 8. Toward the end, the trail forks, leading to the Pettiford Creek Eastern Entrance--one of the best trails in the forest--or Pettiford Creek Trail 7, which features a very narrow water crossing that may be impassable for full-size vehicles.
