Run Wolf Branch/Ledford Loop (Bent Creek)
// March 16th, 2009 // Asheville Running
Combine the 2.1-mile Wolf Branch and the .6-mile Ledford Trail to create a seamless singletrack run across streambeds and through pine and fern forests. Bent Creek is an endless outdoor paradise so grab a map and add some other trails for a longer run.
Directions from Asheville: Take I-240 W to I-26 E and get off on Exit 2, NC 191. Turn left and head south on NC 191 for 2 miles. Turn right at the stoplight onto Bent Creek Ranch Road about 2 miles. We like the parking lot off 479 (dirt road) just past the Hardtimes trailhead parking.





I run this loop a few times a week. It’s a great route; and you can add to it with plent of climbing up Ingles Field Gap if you want a serious challenge.
