TrailMap

Description: To access this well groomed, mostly level, dirt and pine needle covered, beginners mountain biking trail, go behind the post and rail fence at the kiosk. Follow the orange markers as you wind and zig­zag on single track through hardwood and pine forest. You will see beautiful lake vistas, especially in winter, as well as deer, squirrels, chipmunks, snakes, chickadees, and a variety of other birds and wildlife. When you exit the woods at a playing field, turn right, stop at the sign, and cross the road before continuing on the more hilly sections. Watch for occasional low branches, downed trees, and unexpected roots and bumps. A loop on the end of the trail is currently under construction. Restrooms are located near the trailhead and at the park office.

Length: 4-miles out-and-back.

Directions: From Exit 14 on I­85 near Anderson, drive south on SC 187 for approximately 12.5 miles. Turn right onto Sadlers Creek Road and drive 1.2 miles to the park entrance. Continue straight until you see the Dead End sign. Park left on the parking pad, or the mowed grassy area. The trailhead and kiosk are in front of the post and rail fence.
