The Dauset Nature Trails are one of the most venerable mountain bike trail systems in the Atlanta Metro Area. Despite having been around for decades, the local SORBA chapter has been diligent with trail building and maintenance over the years, and newly built or refurbished trails help keep Dauset fun and entertaining to ride.
Description
The trail system offers over 20 miles of interconnected mountain bike trails that are mostly easy- or intermediate-rated. The route shown here is a logical loop around the trail system that seeks to eliminate any backtracking while maximizing the best sections of trail and downhills. To get a longer route, you'll need to mix in some of the cross trails and optional loops to get more mileage.
However you approach this trail system, if you're looking for swoopy cross country mountain biking, you're going to have a great time!
