Description: The trail is a challenge mainly for it's distance. The first 4 or five mile section (riding the trail clockwise) is fairly technical, it then is a nice singletrack with a few short hills. It is very well marked, but bring water and food (none on the trail), the whole loop will take about 3 hours.

Great trail system! Rode the entire 20 miles and it was a blast. No problems with banana spiders at all. Stay in one of the Deluxe Cabins on the lake and ride your bike straight to one of the trail heads.

This trail can kick your butt...but look at my pictures. It's worth it.

Great trail, difficult at times. Great trial for S. Lousisiana.

LOOOOONG! It's 18 miles of nonstop a**whipping. From the South Landing trailhead north for 3-4 miles is the most technical/aerobically demanding of the whole trail. It eases up a bit after this until it turns back north at about mile 15. It's fairly technical throughout. With the length, I had trouble keeping my concentration toward the end. All-in-all....this trail rocks.
Similar Trail: I've not seen a trail like this one that someone can love one minute, then wish destruction by bulldozers on it the next.
