Description: The Hurricane Creek trail is a downhiller's paradise. You begin your journey on top of a ridge, and make your way down into the valley below. The trail is mostly doubletrack, but is extremely chalenging. There are bridges about 1 foot in width to ride on. They are curved, slanted, and will really give you a wild ride. In the valley there are some flat lands with a stream crossing. This trail is fun, but I would recomend that only experianced riders attempt this one.

This is a awesome location if your in the North AL area. A lot of free riding as you can see from the pictures, but there is a nice circuit around all the play things as well. This isn't ain't your daddy's mountain bike trail.

This trail is awesome! There are so many different features about this park that you can't rate it with the scale provided. Each time I ride I see something new, the manager stays busy building fun and creative ways to enjoy the rugged terrain. For the most part the trails are wide, smooth and very well maintained . The new 2mile race course contains most of the wooden free ride features and is on its way to becoming Alabama's Free Ride Park.

Rode this trail with my bro back in January. Actually drove up to B'ham to ride Oak mtn, turned out to be the only day of the year that they allowed hunting at oak mtn. So we went to Hurricane creek on bike shop reccommendation. We were pleasantly surprised. A few wooden obsticles in the parking lot to play on, then down some seriously steep stuff, couple of nice skinnies across the creek. Good uphill with a nice little singletrack loop at the top (seemed like that section was pretty soft, needed to be ridden more), then back downhill, nice rock jump in the middle of the downhill. We followed the creek up to the train tracks, crossed the river, then up that way. There was a nice little figure 8 track up there which had some jumps, a hip high double, and some little kickers. Back up the river, and the pushed the bikes up the steep hill back to the cars. I think the computer ended up with 8 or 9 miles on it. There was this big, long wooden structure coming down the side of the hill, it was closed, but looked pretty challenging. Maybe it'll be open next time. The guy who managed the place spoke with us. He said that they had a lot of new All mountain/light freeride type trails in the plans, with some races/time trial type events to kick it off. Hope so! The place has a lot of potential. Go give it a try.

This ride is sweet. It has just about every kind of riding all mixed into one trail. It has extreme downhill, extreme uphill, stream crossings, and technical bridges.
