This trail has some of the biggest jumps in Catawba County. This place is a network of singletrack ranging in technical and aerobic difficulty.
At the start of the trailhead there are some major stunts that First Flight Bicycles have put together. Along the paved path there is a BMX park with some big jumps that can make or break you. Along the lake there is some good scenery to be seen. Overall this is a good network of trails.
From HWY 321 in Hickory, turn on the road between the Arby's and Nissan dealership. Go to the top of the hill and take a right at the stop sign. Travel about 1 mile and turn left at Hickory City Park. The park is marked with a dark green sign. Park your vehicle and start pedaling down the paved greenway. Take a left at the first intersection and ride up above the VFW center. The mountain bike trailhead starts at the edge of the woods.
