Mountain Biking Glenwood Horse Trail: Northern End

****   Add a review
#155 of 300 mountain bike trails in Virginia
#5,825 in the world

This section of the Glenwood Horse Trail travels through the national forest, dwindling in width from well kept double track to challenging single track as you progress southwards.

You can access Hellgate Horse Trail from Locher Tract. Glenwood Horse Trail picks up where Hellgate ends. Bikes are not allowed in the Thunder Ridge Wilderness Area, so take Petites Gap road if you want to reach the Blue Ridge Parkway, where the GHT exits the wilderness area and bikes are again permitted.
