Ride Summary:
Two loops, one 12 miles and the other is 6 miles.
Trail Description:
The Birdseye loop is really two loops. One loop is 6 miles and consists of mostly double track jeep roads. This is a good ride for beginners. From this main loop, you can hook up with a singletrack loop that offers more challenge. (follow the blue arrows.) The singletrack loop makes the ride 12 miles and includes some strenuous climbs and can get a bit overgrown in the summer months.
How to get there:
From I-64, go to Exit 72 and head North on HWY 145 for about 6 miles looking for a sign. Turn right onto the gravel road and follow it for about a mile to a spur road with a gate to your right. Park here and start the ride at the gate.

The single track and fire road portion can be linked together. This ride has some quite a few different types of challenges: several long hills, some short steep shots, steam crossings, upland meadows, pond edge, hardwood sections, dense brush sections, and technical challenges. There is a dairy bar in the town of Birdseye for after ride replenishment. Hardly anyone using the trails.
