A rocky trail winding through a dense, green forest, with moss-covered stones and trees surrounding the path. Small cairns are visible on the rocks, and the ground is made up of various sized pebbles and stones. The atmosphere appears misty and serene, suggesting a tranquil, natural setting.

Mountain Biking Coldwater Mountain

#1 of 104 mountain bike trails in Alabama
#11 in the world

The first 10 miles of what will hopefully become a 60 mile trail system are now in place and ready for riders. As of the writing of the description, trails currently consist of an easy 1 mile beginners loop and a 9 mile intermediate loop which encircles the mountain and takes full advantage of the terrain and elevation. Think of these current loops as flow trails with elevation. If you crossbred F.A.T.S. and Pisgah, this would be their baby. Trails flow clockwise.

Update 3/5/14: Coldwater Mountain now has 25 miles of trail. IMBA has arrived 3/2014 and plans to add 11 more miles over the next couple months bringing the trail to approximately 35 total miles.

Rider questions

Q: would this be a good place for a begginer to come ride?
A: It's definitely a good place to start. The Baby Bear and Mama Bear trails are a fairly easy beginners trail. As you get better, there are some great challenges further up the mountain!

Q: do they have water and do they have camping on site?
A: No water or camping. :(
