This is a super fun loop which features some of the best flow trails in Dupont State Forest.

It starts and ends at the Lake Imaging parking lot. Address:
Lake Imaging Parking Lot
Lake Imaging Rd, Hendersonville, NC 28739

It is a great loop for riders of all skill levels. Lots of speed and jumping opportunities throughout. There is a short gravel section from Jim Branch to White Pine Trail. The rest is single track.

All of the technical features have alternative routes or bypasses for beginner riders.

Hickory Ridge can be ridden clockwise or counter-clockwise.

Going clockwise will make the uphill steeper and shorter. It is a challenging climb with many rocks and roots. The benefit will be a longer downhill back to Ridgeline.

Traveling counter-clockwise make the uphill easier. It is less steep with fewer rocks and roots. The downhill is shorter and steeper.

End the loop by taking Ridgeline back to the parking lot. Have a snack and then do it again!

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
