challenge. Its twisting turns, short hills, and several
technical creek crossings, take even the best cyclists around 40
minutes to complete. The large pine, oak, hickory, and poplar trees
provide shade, so riding during the summer months, is not so
uncomfortable. Lynch's Woods is also a host to a section of the
Palmetto Trail, which passes through this area. You will cross roads in several places, so be aware
there may be car traffic.Be aware you are sharing this trail
with hikers. Restrooms are available at the parking area.
