MOUNTAIN BIKING: Wannamaker Park

← SC NORTH SANTEE RIVER NORTH SANTEE SC Single Tracks →

Description

This trail has JUST opened (still has that ***SNIFF***... Mmmmmmm, new trail smell). When you pedal out of the parking area just past the gate (and the pole with a slot in it for the $1 day use fee) there are signs indicating which direction to ride. This is based on the day of the week.<br />
<br />
As I said, this trail is "new" and the guys who worked on it have done a EXCELLENT job of putting together a great trail. Once it's been used it's gonna be REALLY fun. If you're looking for a fast, smooth trail, then you'll have to participate by riding it with everyone <br />
else. It will be, but just needs to be "broke in". It will certainly be that way once the trail has been used. There are many berms, jumps and even a "cork screw" bermed corner that winds totally under (or over) itself with a bridge called the "toilet bowl". This is on a section called "the ridge" which is a somewhat technically challenging area. There's a bypass for beginners.<br />
<br />
The "official" opening for the trial is scheduled for around June 1, 2012. RIDE IT NOW!!! <br />
<br />
Great addition to the one good trail we have here in the Low Country.

Directions

Trail head is NOT located in the Wannamaker County Park. To get to trail <br /><br />head, go into Goose Creek and travel down St. James Ave. Turn onto West <br /><br />View Blvd. (toward Crowfield Plantation Subdivision). Right before West <br /><br />View Blvd. turns towards the right into the neighborhood, there will be a <br /><br />dirt road that runs parallel to West View Blvd. You will find the trail head <br /><br />down to the left.
