Description: Gently rolling, 75 acre preserve. This wooded preserve is the home of the Stevie Ray Vaughn Memorial Bridge at Stewart Branch of Ten Mile Creek. Corner of Wintergreen and Main .
Some very steep hills both up and down, not always giving a lot of traction. A real challenge at times. Not very long, but an interesting little trail.
Very pretty wooded areas that give you some shade from the sun.
There is no marked route, but from the parking lot head South and make a counter-clockwise loop of the park to take in the best trails.
It's not a bad idea to ride this with someone who knows the trails first,
although being a small park, you won't get lost, it just helps to have
some local knowledge first time out there.
