From Baton Rouge and used to Comite and these trails ROCKED! You scream down a hill and then the climb up the next makes you want to go home, but what goes up must come down. Good riding and a bunch of fast downhill. They just got done with controlled burns and the hills are beautiful now. Bring lots of water and energy bars.

The trails have been cleaned up a lot from the storms last year. A couple of the bridges are out but you can still cross. Watch out for the banana spiders on the trails especially on talley.

As of 10/28/05 the trails were in complete disrepair because of storm damage from Hurricane Katrina. Trails were blocked with red tape and the ones we got on had trees down every few feet. Otherwise best trails in this area. Looking forward to getting back here once trails are cleared.

Just moved from Washington to Louisiana(unfortunately), but was quite pleasantly surprised after riding this fun trail. Highly recommended.

These are excellent class A trails. Take the Mill loop and the new Richardson Trail for an awesome loop. Lots of switchbacks and fluid short downhills. The other two trails (3 mile and 7 mile options) are more for hikers and not as maintained. Don't overlook these trails if your in the area!
