This track begins along the Turkey Pen Ridge Trail and follows a steady and easy incline for the first portion of the bike. The tracks is relatively wide here, but soon narrows as the path follows the edge of the creek. A series of very difficult switchbacks will crest the ridge and intersect briefly with the Big Levels Trail that follows the ridgeline up to the summit of Torrey Mountain. Veering left along the Torrey Ridge Trail offers some stunning views of Sherando Lake and the surrounding area as the path (with variable tread surface) follows the ridgeline. At the end of a long stint along the ridge, the path will again follow several steeply inclined switchbacks down to Mt. Torrey Road (VA 664), which leads back to the parking area.
