The trails at Eno River State Park are some of the most beautiful and challenging in the Triangle area. Both the 6- and 11-mile courses feature technical single track trail with numerous natural obstacles including rocks, roots, trees, uneven ground, and fallen debris. Both distances feature challenging ascents and descents that require careful concentration and footing.
