Trail Overview

Venom Loop ** Park Rating: 4/5 ** Technical Rating: 7/10 ** Detailed Notes ** Loose dirt and rocks, slick roots across the trail, tight rutted ravines. May cause body damage if not careful. Steep hills with loose rock both up and down. Tight hairpin turns challenge large rigs. Connects to Dewoody, Spider Ravine, and Scorpion Overlook. Requires careful line picking and confident driving. ** Vehicle Recommendations ** Lift with 37" tires minimum, lockers front and rear strongly recommended, winch advised, aggressive tires suggested. ** Full Description **Venom Loop is aptly named for its twisting, technical nature that feels like wrestling a snake. Tight, rutted ravines and steep rocky hills keep drivers focused and rigs flexed out. Hairpin turns make it a puzzle for full-size rigs, forcing thoughtful approaches and backup maneuvers. Links to several of Barnwell's toughest trails, offering a great "choose your adventure" connection. This trail demands precise control, sharp eyes on the line, and readiness for potential body or undercarriage dings -- a fun challenge for intermediate to advanced drivers.
