Trail Overview

This short point-to-point off-road trail is part of the Elbe Hills Trail System. The first section is a hill climb with several sharp turns with tight squeezes through trees and stumps and a section of trench wheeling with rocks and tree roots to negotiate. Once through the trench, the trail turns left and becomes easier. There are plans to revitalize this trail with technical obstacles that will make it more difficult. Currently, the trail is passable by 4WD vehicles with little modification.

When it turns south (from where it meets up with Last Regrets Lane) is temporarily closed (signs and caution tape). I entered from Last Regrets and didn't proceed west towards Mainline as it was too dark and appeared too spicy to go solo.

Fun trail! Can be done in a stock height Toyotas but definitely recommend sliders and skids and good tires.

Sign says passable with 31-33in tires and slightly modified 4x4s definitely not the case if you care about your vehicle. Couple of us suffered some damage and after moving maybe 100ft through the trial we decided to flip around as it only got worse.

Muddy and puddly. The entrance was easy enough with the rocks, but once it became mud, it was way too slick to climb any further. We stopped trying about 200 ft from the start. We didnt drop tire pressure and decided to try the other trails. Definitely can be done, but our intentions were just for a sunday stroll.
