Biking

With the variety of terrain and challenges for riders, Jackson County is the perfect weekend destination for cycling enthusiasts.

The county’s steep elevation gains and mountainous terrain make for an unparalleled experience on the trail.

Local riders have built out many great route maps, courtesy of Motion Makers Bike Shop. One of the many routes popular with local bikers, The Ring of Fire—named for the burn your legs feel afterward—begins at Western Carolina University and traverses a 38.2-mile strenuous loop. See Biking Trails !
