A great trail that leads through the heart of Springbrook for a total of 12 km, and you will see deer along the whole nature trail that winds around the lake.

This is a 160 mile loop that connects the Big Creek Ledges with Springbrook, mainly on cobbled raccoon bike paths. Cyclists can only ride part of the entire route, and snowmobiles are not allowed on the designated trails.

The route is relatively flat, but has some challenging hills as it winds through 14 charming towns and winds through the Big Creek Ledges, Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Appalachian Trail.

Bring your own gear to your campsite or enjoy it at a local bed and breakfast or motel along the route. Bed and Breakfast, parking and concessionaires offer a shuttle service for equipment and luggage for a nominal fee. Reservations for shuttle services must be made in advance and are offered by a licensed parking lot operator with breakfast included.

A detailed brochure of the route is available at Springbrook State Park Visitor Center as well as hotels and motels along the way.
