Fun trail for all. There are 3 different unpaved trails to chose from. Beginner to black diamond Cloud Nine trail. This is the intermediate loop. The paved Greenway trail also goes by trail head. If you like BBQ, there is a great food and micro brew at trail head. Captain's BBQ. There also is a repair stand with tools for public use for free. Public restrooms next to boat ramp.

Just rode after it had just rained so lost traction a few times. Covered in leaves, but still very manageable

      Very cool and fun trail! Lots of twists and turns with some technical root sections along with very awesome features all around the trail. I rode this on my gravel bike which was fine, but I had to skip a few features.
