Off Road Trails - Mountain Biking - Trail Running - Day Hiking

From tight, twisty singletrack, to meandering doubletrack, to forest road climbs, Tennessee's trail systems provide a wide variety of terrain for the beginner to expert rider. Off Road Trails profiles 31 mountain bike trail systems from around Knoxville, Chattanooga, Nashville and the Tri-Cities of Tennessee. Each city is color-coded for easy reference. Full-colored, fold-out topographic maps make it easy to navigate the featured trail systems. Each section offers driving directions to the trailheads, detailed descriptions and maps, aerobic and technical ratings, suggested routes, plus a gallery of pictures. The trail systems profiled are located on national forests, state and city parks, and wildlife management areas with listings as to which areas permit hunting, and if hikers, runners or horseback riders will be sharing the trail. Visitor and nature centers, restrooms, campgrounds and points of interests are highlighted. This is an excellent reference book that can be enjoyed by trail runners and day hikers as well.
