Mountain Biking Piranha Pit

***   Add a review
#153 of 549 mountain bike trails in North Carolina
#3,282 in the world

Lots of tight singletrack with plenty of short drops and climbs on hard packed rooty terrain , not too bad for Down East. The technical rooty outer loop will test the skill of any rider while the short 1.5 mile inner loop is great for beginners and families to warm up on. See our web site for more details.
