Description: Trial starts off somewhat techincal, winding trough a maritime forest in a tight doubletrack. Then opens up for an emergency acess road, turning back into the woods, where it is fairly easy, riding an old sand dune ridge. There is then a hard left, then a right, then it becomes difficult. You traverse old sand dunes riddled with live oak roots. Finally, you come out of the woods at the visitor's center for a casual ride back to the parking lot on the park road. Mind this trail is a multi-use trail. There are other trails in the park, but not as long as this one. There are also unmarked trails that the park service discourage's the use of.

Weak trail for avid MTB Riders, but a great place to take the family for easy off-road treks to observe the natural beauty of this place.

This is a good course for the Lowcountry. It's worth a ride from Charleston or Sav. Old dunes create some ups and downs. For a short technical ride I suggest riding from the camping area to the beach, but you can start the trail from any where on the island. There is also a nice scenic route if you start from the pier and head towards the lagoon. You can ride that trail all the way to the beach.
