#15 of 207 mountain bike trails in Arkansas
#622 in the world

This is now a downhill park. There is one multi-use multi direction trail, Minors Loop. Currently there is a free shuttle running from 10-7 Thursday-Sunday. This is supposed to switch to a paid shuttle sometime in mid August 2018.

beacham trailhead at the camp grounds is mostly fireroad up to where you cross the lake dam, the overlook section spurs off at a couple points. Then the trail turns to singletrack, few rideable techincal sections nothing to serious.

Rider questions

Q: Does it have beginner trails
A: Yes, ride up the west side of the Lake on Beacham Trail across the dam and down the other side for a ways, it becomes technical on the SE corner of the Lake. Just turn around or walk. I initially went counterclockwise and walked the first quarter of the loop around the lake. I then headed to the Overlook Trail. I walked parts but was able to ride most. Best to ride overlook trail counterclockwise for the most downhill. I rode clockwise and wished I had gone the other way. I'm 57 and this was my first MTB Trip just bought a new bike. I am in good shape. Not sure if beginner means out of shape or non technical MTB rider.
