Trail Ridden: Please Select
Recommended Route:
Start at back boat ramp for Bike only trail.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
It's a nice park right between Tupelo (Elvis Presley Park trails) and Oxford (Fruit Loop and Clear Creek trails).

Review:

Bike only trail is good for all level. Good single track takes advanced riders about 1-1.5 hour. The Moto trails are not good when wet, but so much fun for advanced riders when dry. Not suggested for beginners. Many miles of hills, roots, and ruts. Trails are marked, but it's still easy to get lost.

elvis presley lake (park) trail, in tupelo.

Review:

very nice park overall, great place to get a cabin by the lake and spend a couple of days. the trails are somewhat technical and steep but in very bad shape due to constant use by motorcycle and atv's. i understand that it's primarily not a bike trail. some sections have very bad ruts caused by the moto's and the mud is so thick that's it's unrideable other than with an atv.
