This part of the Ozark National Forest offers 42 miles of ATV and dirt bike trails that wind through a mixed hickory, oak and pine tree forest. The trail system consists of two main loops and some smaller side trails that all interconnect. The terrain is mostly hard packed dirt with some loose chunk rock and a few shallow water crossings.
The trails are marked with yellow and orange blazes and routes wind through numerous scenic views, creek crossings, small waterfalls and beautiful deep woods scenery. The trail system has three staging areas and one campground with direct trail access. The Mountain Man staging area offers direct access to single track trails while the Zing staging area offers access to the ATV trails.
The Brock Creek Campground is located at the southern part of the trail system and features six sites, each with a picnic table, fire ring and lantern holder. There is a vault toilet available but no water so bring your own.
