Trail Overview

Trail 21 offers a smooth, flowing ride with sweeping turns and minimal elevation change--ideal for beginners or anyone looking for a break from rocky terrain. The trail is mostly mild, with only a few scattered rocky sections for variety and sharp corners. Dense rhododendron blocks the blind corners in spots, so be aware of two-way traffic, but the wide path remains easy to navigate. Trail 21 has several more difficult spurs, such as 821 connecting to Trail 23 and 421 connecting to Trail 1, offering options for riders seeking variety. Scenic highlights include three overlooks--Turkey Top View, Roan View, and Flint Knob--some equipped with picnic tables and viewing platforms, making this a must-ride for the views alone.

Access Description

Doe Mountain Recreation Area is open year-round, daily from sunrise to sunset, with the Adventure Center Office operating from 8 AM to 4:30 PM. There are several access points into the area, and User Passes--required at all times--can be purchased either at the office or online. The trail system welcomes dirt bikes, ATVs, and side-by-sides (SXSs), but is closed to Jeeps, cars, and trucks. For those looking to explore without their own machine, the Adventure Center also offers SXS rentals. Riders will find scenic lookouts scattered throughout the trails, along with non-motorized hiking paths and limited cell service. While overnight camping isn't permitted within the park, campgrounds are available nearby in Doe Valley. Most trails support two-way traffic, and weekends can get quite busy--so plan accordingly.
