Summary:
Trails are still in decent condition on most sections.. I've seen a few hikers, motorcross, and mtn bikers on the trail as of recent...

Recommended Route:
DO NOT park at the trailhead... ONLY ride these trails if you know them well, and know what area's to stay away from...

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Devils Den 50 min drive north of ft smith....

Summary:
Great trail for mtn biking, hiking, 4 wheeling or just having a good time..... But as of a few months ago NO TRESSPASSING signs have been put all over this place. pretty sad.... so parking at the trailheads is really a no go anymore........

WOW FT SMITH HAS ZERO decent riding anymore all the trails are to the NORTH/SOUTH of it.... BIKE SHOPS STEP UP AND HELP YOUR LOCAL RIDERS OUT>.....

Recommended Route:

Summary:
the trail is kind of a two-parter; you can go left and down the rocky clay road, lots of fun that way. big rocks steep inclines and mud galore. once you go right at the bottom of the steep hill, go right, then work your way rightish until you get on some narrow shaded woodland. there's a hellish hill in there somewhere, but i loved it all and plan to go back often. my favorite area was the shaded and wooded area in the opposite direction of the access road (check recommended route). there's also a built up jump too

also, poison ivy wasn't a big problem. there's lots of it, but not much on the trails

Recommended Route:
unless you pine for steep crappy road and huge rocks, don't ride the clay road left. from the cul-de-sac go right, ride a block or so through the meadowish stuff, then on your left you'll see an obvious trail into the woods. lots of more-or-less level and comfortable riding through here, and if you go far enough you'll find a long, steep, shaded downhill ride.

Summary:
This is a great trail. Couldn't ride it too far, but it has creeks and mud holes and it was a blast. It's close to town so it can be ridden often.

Recommended Route:
Park at the cul de sac, ride down the hill to the power line road, turn right and look for the singletrack on the left.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Rode Womble, and Springhill

Summary:
Getting to the trail was pretty rough, had to ride down a service road that had been washed out with huge and abundant rocks to collide with. The trail was technically difficult with lots of large rocks to dodge and plenty of obstacles. Overall, a fun ride. The rocks will beat you up so be prepared, have tools ready and possibly a first aid kit. And take a buddy.

Recommended Route:
We parked where the map said to, rode the service road to the left nearly to the bottom of the hill, then picked up the service road to the right, a hundred yards or so down, the single track picks up on the left.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Springhill at the lock and dam near Barling
