Higher Ground is developing a new park in southern Williamson county. These trails will accomodate beginners to Advanced riders. At this time we have only 2mi. of trail completed but plan an 8 to 10 mile course. The land is very rolling with lots of elevation change. WE also have trail running through the valley. There will be creek crossings along with a few bridge crossings. Some bridges will be failly easy while there will also be ladder bridges on the more technical trails. We are going to offer everything from a nice ride through the lower part of our camp to good hill climbs and great ridge runs leading to some good down hill. We will have something for everyone. I hope you took time to read this and have an interest in seeing a new well built park for the mtb community. We also need volunteers to help with trail building. If you are interested please contact us at our email address. I'll be happy to get in touch. Courtesy of Singletracks.com
