Trail Overview

This trail will take you down a valley in Wayne National Forrest. Much of this trail is a gravel road but you will find sections of big rocks, creek water over the road, and even a small section of mud holes to get dirty. You first start out by traveling down a curvey gravel road with plenty of rock formations and even see some abandoned structures. You will come to a fork in the road if you go right you will find perfect spots to camp right off the trail. You can also continue past the camping spots onto another trail. I turned around due to poor conditions and couldn't continue on the trail that way. But if you take the left at the fork in the road you will find the road with a layer of water to splash in due to flooding. After you pass the small part in the road with water over it you will come to a dirt road that turns back into gravel to end the trail.

Awesome Trail, We hunt down there and There is one section that breaks off and you will need 4X4 to pass through the water holes. Then a pretty steep muddy incline that has some pretty deep ruts.

Very good beginner trail, or if you’re just trying to go for a ride on a gravel path for the hell of it. I believe you would be alight even with a 2-wheel drive pickup. I never had to switch into 4-wheel even with the “muddy uphill” sections. Would be a cool first date off-road trip if that fits you haha

Very easy to navigate trail. Little to no difficulty, couple of small 6in holes but can easily be maneuvered around. 11/10 trail!! Super scenic

If you stay on the road it’s a very easy route but there are plenty of opportunities to turn off the road and get stuck. There is no cell service so be careful which tracks you take. To give you a sense of the difficulty I saw a Subaru legacy on the trail and he was having no problems although he did hesitate at the water crossings.

A nice ride in the country. Appears to be a maintained pipeline road. Not really a jeep trail.
