Mountain Biking Bernard Mountain Trail

****   Add a review
#293 of 549 mountain bike trails in North Carolina

Fun, fast narrow downhill run.  Full of switchbacks and ridge lines.  There is one man-made drop.  Nothing too gnarly, but your focus is required.   900+ feet of descent.  Either ride back up the trail or take a 3.5 mile paved road back to the parking lot.

Beautiful views of the Blue Ridge area from the trail and the paved road.
