Black Mountain Trail section closed for maintenance

A portion of the Black Mountain Trail on the Pisgah Ranger District will be closed through approximately Aug. 15 for maintenance. 

The closure is in effect from Maxwell Cove Road (FS 5099) to Turkey Pen Gap Trail (No. 322). During that time, a trail rebuild will take place in partnership with Pisgah Area Southern Off Road Bicycle Association and The Pisgah Conservancy. It aims to enhance resource protection and improve trail sustainability.

We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home.
