Review: Great trail with decent climbs and descents. Some of the rock spines/piles are a blast to session.

Review: Trail is 29 miles long, with another three in a couple of weeks. Start at new ranger station, head north following orange arrows for the big loop. Not for beginners unless willing to walk alot. There are 26 miles of trail north of station. The new stuff starts south, just north of marina road. The last bit is only marked with orange flagging tape at this time.

Review: Great trail system. Wonderful combination of fast flowing, tight twisty, and technical rock. A few climbs long enough to get the heart rate up, but mostly short up and downs with technical sections through out. Many more miles than the map shows, can be ridden as a big loop, with numerous connector/ short-cut options. Signage is hand written but getting lost is not a option as the trails are sandwiched between the lake, and Rt 77S. Mostly intermediate level trail with some expert options. Beginners will have the least hike-a-bikes by choosing trails closer to the road.

Similar Trail: Take Nu Draper, and throw in a handfull of Greenleaf SP and you have Lake Murray.

Review: Just tried this trail tonight for the first time. It was great. Someone has really done a good job of maintaining the trail. I did the loops around the Anadarche Trailhead and the Pecan Grove and hope to go back soon and do more of the routes. Great job, whoever is keeping this thing up! Side note: It is exit 29 for Madill, not exit 24. Just so you know

Review: This is more of an update. As of 7-18-10 there is no point in riding any of the trails. All trails are COVERED in spider web and spiders. I started biking at the Anadarche Trailhead and only made it 5 MINUTES before turning back and running for dear life. This is my first time out here biking and from what i could see I cant wait to come back. i pray that next time there's no death spiders

Review: funnest trail ive rode so far as of 11/08. lots of fairly big drops. one huge downhill about 30 feet. pretty long to go all the way out and back. not recomended for beginners. great workout and lots of fast sections. only a few technical sections. a couple tough climbs also.

Review: Some friends and I rode late Feb. 2006, and saw some folks on the trail. They had added another 4+ miles of trail, and are planning on making most of the trail a loop by adding new trails to the out-and-back. There are several 8-12 ft drops if your interested, otherwise a wide variety of singletrack: smooth and fast, roots, rocks, climbs, etc. Some new signs on the new trial sections have been added recently, but more are needed on the old loops. They guy we talked to was also GPSing, so hopefully some new trailmaps appear too.

Review: Trail is out-and-back with loops, and has both fast singletrack, technical rock gardens and [very tough] drops, bridges, and drop-ins. There are some decent climbs and downhills, and also a few jumps mid-course. There are a couple good bike jumps by the Tipps Point campground area along the lake. The north end is OK, the south end is the best. Make sure you hit the Long and Hard loop. Overall, good technical singletrack. There are some old trail signs marking loops and features, but overall the previous are poorly marked. The trailheads, however, are decently marked. Campling is everywhere, and there is good trail access at each.
