Something for everyone. A lot to do in a compact twisty, 5 mile ride. Good climbs, slick rocks, gnarley roots, skinny bridges. A bit more technical than a beginner course if you do it all.
From Birmingham take I-59 east to eixt 141 northeast of the city. Go east on Chalkville Road for about .9 miles. left onto Oak Street. Through first stop sign. Cross Cahaba River. Left at next stop sign in to Trussville Sports Complex. You will see where the trail crosses the main road. Parking is allowed about anywhere within sports complex. Map available online.
