DuPont State Recreational Forest is a very popular multiuse, bi-directional trail system, so be on the lookout for hikers, horses, and bikers. It is normally open in any weather although it can close in extended periods of freeze / thaw during the winter.

Description

While not especially thrilling, this trail is used to connect Rock Quarry Road to the top of Micajah Trail, both of which are more interesting. This doubletrack is mostly an easy-to-moderate climb, but levels out in a few spots.
