Chicken Dinner is a brand-new (as of winter 2016/17) 2-mile singletrack trail that connects from Sweet Dreams in the Arkansas Hills Trail System and runs down to the dirt road near the railroad tracks. Professionally built by Tony Boone & Co, this is a masterpiece of berms, jumps, rollers, tables, rhythm sections, some chunk, and tons and tons of flow! Chicken Dinner has become an instant classic!

    Great Flow trail with some tech and a couple side jumps on it. Generally not a lot of hikers or uphill traffic.

    Super fun trail with plenty of tights turns, berms, small jumps, rocks, and a few tabletops. Great for all skill levels, experts will go faster and rail the berms. Still not too hard for a beginner at slow speed. I would be happy riding this trail all day, just not up.

    Terrific flow trail with some small jumps and berms mixed in. Has a little gnar up top but nothing tough. Nice flow on this trail and a hoot to do fast.

    Chicken Dinner is a flow trail that even has a little rock garden action at the top! It flows well for a lot of the way, has nice berms - but not the huge swooping kind. There are opportunities for air but no big jumps - this is an intermediate trail. The terrain is not very steep so it isn't troubled by significant braking bumps. The dirt is a bit stony and rocky so it's not all smooth but it won't shake your eyeballs either.

    Cross country flow at it's finest! This isn't a legit DH flow trail, but rather a rolling XC trail with incredible berms and playful features sprinkled throughout. A singletrack work of art!
