Overview

Williamson Preserve features mostly flowy, beginner-friendly singletrack in a lovely forested environment. The trails become progressively more challenging/feature-rich as you move south.

Description

Williamson trails are built as loops connected by short sections of bidirectional trail, so at any point, you can cut the ride and head back to the parking lot. This trail is directional by day of the week: Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday bikers turn left at all direction signs. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, bikers turn right at all direction signs. This route follows the Thursday/Friday/Saturday direction.

Beginning at the parking lot, take the gravel path until you reach the first informational sign. Take a left at the sign to continue on Pine Warbler Loop. After Pine Warbler comes Little Falls Loop and Longleaf Loop. These first three loops are smooth and flowing with few obstacles. Salamander Loop features a few gullies and slightly more climbing. Near the end of Salamander Loop, take a right to continue onto Magnolia Run and then Lily Loop. Both Magnolia and Lily feature some short rock gardens, optional drops and skinnies, and punchier climbs.

Once you rejoin Salamander Loop, it's another flowy journey back to the beginning, taking a right at all directional signs.
