Trail Overview

DA 18 is a long, easy transfer trail featuring a wide path winding through lush forest with scenic rock walls and a tall, leafy canopy. Occasional downed trees and mud puddles may appear after storms, but the trail remains non-technical throughout. Its curvy layout is typical of the easier routes in the Devil Anse system. The south end begins near the staging area--where rider traffic is common--and continues north toward the intersection with the Buffalo Mountain Trail System, providing a smooth connection between trail networks.
