The Brushy Mountain Cyclist Club (BMCC) of Wilkes County knows how to do things right! They've created a trail system with over 20 miles of single-track around the W. Kerr Scott Reservoir that has lured High Country mountain bikers to load up and drive south for amazing experience.

Directions from Boone:

Take U.S. 421 south to the N.C. 268 exit (exit 286B).

Turn right at the traffic light at the bottom of the exit ramp.

To access the Overmountain Victory Trail and the Visitor Center, drive west on NC 268 2.8 miles. Turn right onto Reservoir Road at the big "W. Kerr Scott Dam and Reservoir" sign. Proceed 0.4 mile and turn left at the Visitor Assistance Center sign.
