Redbird Crest Trail System
Featured Trail Near Big Creek, KY!This part of the Daniel Boone National Forest offers over 100 miles of motorized trails with a large portion that is designated as pure single track. Most of the terrain is rough, narrow and rugged with many sections following mountain ridgetops.
The trail system has three developed staging areas, and each comes with a vault toilet. The single track is located about .3 miles east past the Peabody Staging Area but motorcycles must be street legal since a section of paved road must be crossed to access the trailhead.
The area is open year-round but a trail pass is required to ride here, which can be purchased through nearby vendors or by visiting the Redbird Crest Ranger Station.
