Great trail, I have ridden all over the united states and this trail will be on my list to come back to. Not real difficult but challenging enough to keep your interest up. Nice flow, up and down many hilly areas. Only down side is it is a loop so out and back or all the way around.

i am relatively new to MTB riding but have riden on 3 trails all in alabama. lake lurleen is more endurance than technical eventhough parts are technical. great work out with tight hairpin turns at times. there is a moderate amount of hills and down hills with minor jumps. the scenery is great with lots of trees and offcourse the whole trail is surrounds a lake. i would reccomend starting off early in the morning though as alabama weather is hot and humid especially as the day goes along. very nice trail.

The trail is finished! Officially, there are still some "red-tape" areas that are being worked on by the druidcity team (www.druidcity.org), but besides two small sections, its a full loop. I think they're still working on a complicated trail in the northern section, but in terms of riding a full loop, head here. The trail itself is not very technical (the first half going clockwise is a bit trickier due to some tight turns and sandy parts), but if you're looking for an aerobic workout, this trail will not disappoint you. Lots of ups and downs (I think its roughly 200 ft of climbs), pretty decent for the southeast. The trail is well-maintained, and they've been working hard to get some great bridges finished. There's an extra 3 mile loop you can take to make the total round trip just about 15 miles. Without the loop, its a little over 12 miles. I'll post some pictures and you can see for yourself.
