The lake trail is not a beginners trail. Singletrack with steep drop off on one side and numerous large roots and rocks to navigate. If you can ride this trail and not get off your bike I would consider you an expert, otherwise be prepared to get off and walk occasionally. The view is nice.

The lake trail is not the only trail and it isn't a beginner trail. There are very narrow and dangerous spots where a person can slip off the trail and slide down a long drop off into the lake. There are many difficult trails and lots of climbing. I ride there almost every day and most people I meet get a good workout. Check out the maps on the following site. www.GCMBC.com

The wifey and I took our 13 year old boy and 15 year old girl around the lake, down to the dam (started at the dam on w. dam road)... We rode about 16 miles and had a great time. The trail around the lake is challenging but still good for novices like us. We will certainly do it again.

There are plenty of trails in this area. Go to GCMBC.com (greater clemson mountian biking club website) where they have some good maps of the place. I ride out there almost every weekend. Seems gcmbc has updated the maps lately as there are areas I didn't know existed...
