Review: You really should make the effort to ride the Shingle Mill Pathway. It is a great trail that you will what to ride over and over again. Great scenery as you ride the trail so bring a camera. You will run into different types of woods, fields, swamps (Good amount of planking), and run along the river. This single track is more of an adventure than a ride. Does have a few climbs and descents that will get your blood flowing. And some nice flat and sections that flow nicely at speed. Starts and ends near the river so after a hot ride, its easy to cool off! You do ride pass a forester station and campground (water point). After you finish the trail the High country Pathway is also part of the Shingle Mill Pathway. So if you looking to explore a bit it does provide a different view. Get a map and you can figure out what roads will take you back to the parking area.

Review: This is an awesome ride with incredible scenery. It was also much longer than I thought it would be. I gave myself 2 hours to ride this trail and it was not enough time to finish the outer loop. I also found out that this trail connects into a network of about 80 miles of trails. My only complaint is that I didn't have an entire day to check out the entire path and there were quite a few trees down across the first mile of the trail starting from the Pigeon River Campground.

Review: This is an awesome 10 miles + trail with the most beautiful scenery. Some good roots and rough terrain, but mostly nice ST. A 1/3 mile long bridge at end of bigger loop. WOW!
