Took a trip to Upper Alabama with the family to visit some state parks, a Shakespeare Festival, and visit my folks in Atlanta.
We stayed a day at Highland Park in Georgia. Highland Park has ATV trails, a kiddie MX track, a big grand prix style MX track, and quite a bit of single track.
The trails were well marked and labeled for level of difficulty. The area is very hilly and rocky.
My kid had a great time. He'd never tried hills like they had there, we are flat landers from the Gulf Coast of Alabama. I hadn't had to run trails like that in years, either.
At one point I left my boy at the kiddie track and went off on some of the trails. 3 diamond difficulty was challenging, but they had a 5 diamond "Expert only" I just had to try. Jeeez, tough stuff! Straight up, straight down, rutted all the way, real ball buster. I guess I'm no "expert", but I did make it through in one piece and without falling in a ravine.
If you are ever in the Atlanta GA - Birmingham AL area and want to check it out, I'd recommend it. We were there on a weekday and there was only a couple of other people. There is also a KTM dealership on the property.
