Seven distinct downhill trails at Lake Leatherwood
The park’s seven downhill runs offer sustained descents that can last up to 20 minutes depending on rider speed and ability—ample room to find flow on each line.
A purpose-built shuttle keeps laps coming
Shuttle rides to the top are short—about 5 to 10 minutes—and pickups from the bottom run approximately every 15 minutes, letting riders maximize downhill time between runs.
All‑day, downhill‑focused laps
This is a day of repeated descents with a shuttle rhythm: expect a full‑day experience that concentrates on downhill mileage rather than cross‑country touring.

The cadence favors continuous descents—short climbs, long drops, and a steady rotation between top and bottom that fills a six‑hour, all‑day program.
