Trail Overview
Located in Bays Mountain Park. New mountain biking trail constructed by the local club. Good short alternate ride or hike downhill through hardwood forest.
How to get there
Most folks are going to ride this trail down from Indian Pipes - likely after visiting the fire tower. Others might hike it up as a loop with sections of Indian Pipes, Pretty Ridge, and Back Hollow Road.
Route Description
The path meanders through the forest on a route originally constructed as a hiking trail back in late 1990s. It has connections to Indian Pipes Trail and River Mountain Road.
Unless the section of Indian Pipes Trail has been renamed, this Bear Run Trail is half the distance shown on the Bays Mountain park map. The distance from River Mountain Road over to the upper trailhead is 0.7 miles.
Typical Conditions
Hard packed trail with groove down the middle from the mountain bikes. Some rocks located at key spots.
