Mountain Biking Whiskey Trail
#53 of 108 mountain bike trails in Kentucky
This single track trail is part of the Sheltowee trace. This section is around 10 miles each way. the trail has technical sections, fast sections, and some easy flat sections with good scenery. The problem with the trail is that it isn't maintained very well. I find my self lifting my bike over, or around a lot of downed trees. Also the lack of maintenance has resulted in a lot of briers along the trail. the trail probably isn't something for a beginning rider due to some rough down hills and annoying trees across the trail. Over all I still enjoy the ride.

Take KY 89 north from McKee for 3 miles, turn right (east) on Forest Road 4, follow the signs for 3 miles. After reaching the camp gorund you will see where the USA trial goes up the hill. Ride up that trail about 200 yards and the single track trail will be on your right.
This trail has it all. Speed, technical sections, mud, rocks, hard pack, hard climbs, fun descents, and good scenery. The down side is that it isn't maintained very well at all. There are a lot of trees down that require the rider to lift the bike over it. Some sections have a lot of briers on the edge of the trail that lead to cut legs and flat tires. The trail is mostly single track and a lot of fun, you aren't likely to meet any other people on the trail.
