Trail Overview

Trail 1B is a well-maintained 2.5-mile UTV trail in Pisgah National Forest, offering a gradual 600-foot descent from north to south. Suitable for vehicles 65" wide or less, the trail is wide and smooth, featuring cinderblock paths, water bars, and occasional embedded rock slabs--some flush with the surface and others slightly protruding. While generally easy and fast, riders should be mindful of loose rock sections and two-way traffic. The trail is clearly signed throughout, making it a reliable, accessible route for those seeking a quicker connection or a less technical ride.
