== Trail Overview ==
<!-- Enter a overview of the trail. What attracts you to this trail, points of interest, types of flowers, lakes, and peaks that you see along the way. -->
Located in [[Warriors Path State Park]]. A ~9 mile network of trails primarily designed for mountain biking, but perfectly suitable for hiking on the park area seen across the way from the boat launch/soccer fields.

== How to get there ==
<!-- Please enter detailed instruction on how to find the trail head. -->
From main entrance of [[Warriors Path State Park]]:
#Go north on Fall Creek Road for 2.4 miles.
#Turn right (east) onto Old Mill Road for 0.8 miles.
#Turn right (south) onto Childress Ferry Road for just roughly 100 yards.
#Turn left (east) onto Buttermilk Road for 1.2 miles.
#Turn right (south) onto Freeman Road for 0.5 mile.
#Continue when road changes from asphalt to gravel.
Trailhead at gravel parking lot.

== Route Description==
<!-- Detailed description of the route. Is there any side trails that are worth traveling? -->
The trail system has three primary 2-4 mile circuits which can be done individually or sequentially for a longer walk.  Starting from the parking lot, the best is a 3.0 mile loop hike over 1.5-2 hours on the Boneyard Trail and Lake Road which offers some nice views of Patrick Henry Lake and the main park area.  Darwin's Revenge travels a 2.2 mile loop running in a valley parallel to I-81 out to the lake and back.  It can be readily joined to Boneyard for a 5 mile overall hike.  The last main 3.7 mile route is Lake Road to Whitetail Loop for a forest walk - with Rock City providing some lake views.  Steady hiking can achieve 2 mph, so include time to enjoy and take pictures of the scenery.

Here is a full list of trails per the current brochure available at the trailhead.

== Typical Conditions ==
<!-- Typical conditions throughout the year of what to expect on the trail. Rocky, muddy, sandy, flowers, lots of downed trees?  -->
The mountain biking association [http://ntmba.org/ SORBA Tri-Cities] handles the trail maintenance, thus generally in good condition.  While there are no blazes to guide you through the forest, the narrow single tracks are well established.  Grab a trail map at the parking lot kiosk to help you decipher intersections; some which could use signs.  Be aware for approaching bike riders who can come up quickly on your group.  Step aside to let them safely pass.
