About The Trail:
Great for all types of riders, Yellow River has a large array of trails ranging from flat, flowing trails along the river to rolling hills and long descents. We'll start with several of the flatter trails on the river side, break for a snack, then move to the slightly more intense trails with twisty climbs and long - though not steep - descents. That said, there are no major roots, drop-offs, or other big obstacles typically associated with mountain biking, so you have zero excuses and need only minimal mountain biking skills to ride this trail. Beginner riders will definitely enjoy a loop or two.
Ride Level:
The trails at Yellow River are excellent for beginner riders who are just learning to ride dirt or for experienced riders looking for a quick ride. There are a multiple loops and cut-offs - and you are never very far from the parking lot - so you can ride as much or as little as you want.
Meeting Times/Directions:
Please meet by noon in front of the rest rooms on the right side of the parking lot. To get there, take GA 20 East, turn right at the first exit after Stone Mountain, right at the first fork, left at the second fork, then a right onto Juhan Road about a mile later. A mile or so in, you'll see the park on the left. Pass the first park entrance and take a left at the stop sign at the top of the hill into the parking lot on the right. I drive a white Toyota Sequoia and usually have three people with me (who don't always RSVP!).
See you on the trail!
