MOUNTAIN BIKING: Buffalo Trace

← IN EAST FORK WHITE RIVER SHOALS IN Single Tracks →

Description

The first of many mountain bike trails around the French Lick Resort is now open. The trail is named Buffalo Trace due to the Buffalo Trace that ran through the property. It's a 6+ mile trail that climbs to the top of the West Side of Mt Airie. With more elevation than Hesitation Point, Alex Stewart built a trail with his signature flow. The tread is easy, and the grades are kept at 5%, so beginner riders will be at home. Advanced riders will finish the climb a bit faster. When they open up on the descent, they will find Alex's rewards for speed.
