Shinglemill Pathway

Trail Description:
Very senic trail working it way through the Pigeon river forest, very clean and open. Wonderful day ride, many great places to stop and relax.

How to get there:
Take I-75 to Vanderbilt exit 290. Head east to Vanderbilt, turn left (east) on Stugeron Valley road. Follow that for 10-12 miles to the Pigeon river forest campground just over the river. The trail head starts in the camp ground.

Sandy and not too steep, but with LOTS of tree ruts in some spots.(enough to make your behind sore the next day on a hardtail bike) After climbing big hill approx midway through trail take a rest at the observation area at top, then enjoy zooooming back down. Traveling on narrow boardwalk along W side of loop is a minor yet fun challenge- good for practicing balance.
