The sign you need to turn at is barlet pond, not bartel. Trail isn't to bad though.

I've ridden this trail for a number of years. It will suprise you, for a trail so close to the coast. It’s got several sections most non-locals don’t know about. :O) The Pirrana pit offers a nice variety of single track, with several challenging sections, all close to the Neuse river.
It’s a trail you can have allot of fun on, and also get a good ride out of. miktip1@hotmail.com

Look out for fallen trees after serious storms and bring plenty of water. Roots are VERY serious, FSR bikes fully recommended! Ride time depends on which trail or combination thereof you choose. Short, medium, and long trails differ from 40-80 minutes depending on average speed.
