This area consists of two separate trail systems that can be accessed from the staging area. The area to the north is Peters Mill Run Trail, a 12-mile, moderately challenging rocky jeep trail loop with occasional creek crossings, while Tasker’s Gap to the south offers some challenging ATV trail loops. The two areas combined offer about 40 miles of trails to explore.
