Trail Overview

Jeepers, get your badges! This Jeep Badge of Honor trail is on the easier side with three short rock step formations and mud holes. This trail also runs simultaneously with Trail G26, should you need a quick exit. Trail 26 runs downhill for the first two rock steps from the East to West. It is full of loose rock and little to no large boulder formations. Wind Rock Park considers this trail blue in difficulty.

Difficulty

A stock 4x4 vehicle can complete this trail with little issues, however ground clearance or skid plates are highly recommended due to the short steep grades. After a heavy rain or running the trail from West to East, greater difficulty will apply.

Trail was well maintained. The entrance is a pretty tight switchback and it was tight with my cap and tent. You can make it but I don't remember reading about that. The majority of the trail is mild. However, there are two places where even on 37" tires I still hit my hitch. One is in the middle of the decent on the rock garden. The second is after you exit the rock garden. There is a dirt section with rocks in it. There is a large drop off that is slightly off camber and you have to pick a good line. I would recommend having a spotter for those two places. Great trail.

Jeep BOH Trail 26. From East, early on trail there's a signifcant shale shelf with several ways to traverse-or-roll over. Long downhill creek bed w/8-12 rocks for several hundred feet. Sticky mud on lower portion. Tr.27 closed for maintenance so no turn around. Left park onto State property and then Petros,TN 30 min ride back to General Store via hwys TN116 and TN62. first time to Windrock; 2000 jeep TJ - 3"lift w/ 33" ironman m/t. "Moderate" for a newbie with ideal conditions. would be a "thrill" with wet conditions

We’ve run Trail 26 many times, but it had the sloppiest mud we’ve ever seen on it this time despite not much rain in the area recently. Trail 26 is one of our favorite trails for rock climbing in a moderately lifted Jeep. There are a few waterfall ledges to climb as well as some rocky rutted sections. Definitely recommend this trail.

it was not raining and hadn't foe a week, yet the drop from G6 to the river was still slick and there was a large mud big to push through between the river and the pavilion. This is really two trails depending on your direction. Dropping down from G6 was easy as you were not climbing anything. The other direction with the mud would be another story. I left on 27 which was mild as well with on muddy and rutted climb that required getting you passenger high on the bank outside the ruts (which non experienced drivers will find very uncomfortable) and still easier than going back up 26.

A nice mix of rock obstacles, mud, ledges and wet stream bed. Enjoyed it so much that I went back up! Lower part of trail diverges from onX map. Appears that Windrock has rerouted.

We decided to go uphill from T27 after a good overnight rain. 4 of us in a RZR velocity S. The trail was slippery and wet with water holes and mud slides most of the way. The rock garden was interesting and fun with the slippery bolder crossing. The rocky areas require some technical driving skills.

Not obstructed. Trail closed 2/3 way through due to trail maintenance. Can take G26 instead and still end up at end of Trail 26. Had lots of fun and enjoyed the ride/view.

Wet/muddy up top. Rock steps were wet, but manageable. Main section of trail (rock garden and ledge obstacles were all flowing with water). Lower rock section was dry, but the incline/decent (depending on direction) at intersection of T26 and G26 was a muddy/rutted mess. 35” tires very helpful

We ran the trail downhill, the gatekeeper at the top we tight with lots of erosion. There was a decent amount of water flowing down the trail from the rain 24 hours before. Only saw one other group, 4 SXS running the trail uphill.
