Review:

This trail rules at night with lights. Especially mid to late Fall when leaves are down and it's tough to see the turns at the bottom of a short hill.

Recommended Route:
Take the I-40 Canada Rd exit North. About 2 1/2 miles up and on the left hand side at the community center? If you come to a 4-way stop, you've gone too far, turn around and go back, making the first right.

Review:

If climbing is your bag, baby - then you need to ride the yellow trail. If endurance is something you are not familiar with, don't ride the yellow, they have other trails that are a lot easier and make for enjoyable riding. Lots of climbing, lots of short, fast downhills. Fun singletrack course. Im giving it five stars because it punishes me every time I ride it.

Take Hwy 70 and when you come to Canada Rd. take a right. Its on the right

Wolf River, Tour de Wolf

Review:

Try all three trails- blue yellow and red. There are also various offshoots and cuts- commonly refered to by runners as the white trail. Great trails, but watch out for cross country runners in the afternoon during the week and on weekends.

Review:

(yellow trail) what the trail lacks in length, it makes up for in difficulty. its garanteed to have you huffing and puffing with some tuff climbs. its somewhat technical.
(blue trail) this trail is more typical of our area and makes for a good cool down after the yellow trail. mildly technical.

Review:

This trail has the most hills in Memphis. It's one of the hardest in our flat lands. It's 98% signle track with tight turns. It's about 4 mile. The top part stays pretty dry after a rain. It's a good trail for Memphis.
