Blue Ridge Trails

Saturday, December 23, 2023

Other Names

Blue Ridge Trail System, Sumner

Last Known StatusOpen

These trails are mostly single track and are marked, rated and frequently maintained. They are multi-use trails with thick forest vegetation, slippery tree roots, mud puddles, logs, and occasional road crossings.

The heavily forested area gets muddy quickly and dries out slowly, so it is recommended to wait a few extra days after a hard rain. It is easy to access the staging area which has a small gravel parking lot but no services.
