#234 of 552 mountain bike trails in North Carolina
This trail is 1.11 miles one-way. This trail is a gnarly, steep hike-a-bike in one direction and a steep, technical descent the other. Prepare to get your butt kicked!

From Asheville, head south on I-26E. Take the exit for Hwy. 280, and follow that Southwest towards Brevard. Hang a right on Hwy. 276, and that will take you into the heart of Pisgah. Drive a few miles down 276, and park on the left at the Coontree Picnic area. The trail starts back across the highway.
Fast descent with medium small drops you can huck on the way down. Not too rocky, just as fast as you like. Note this is part of a popular hiking loop, particularly toward the bottom of the trail. Open to bikes Oct 15 - Apr 15, but closed to bikes the rest of the year.
