Royal Blue Trail 20 and 31

[Scamih]

anyone ride these trails. I’m planning my Friday night ride to the top of the world and looking for another way back to LaFollette trying a different route. If I come back this way is it better to stay on trail 20 or is Trail 31 a good trail to cut across.

20 is a long trail but usually in good shape. 31 has a few sketchy spots. It's a fun trail though.

That whole area is one of my fav spots.
The bolders and the cave is something you should explore.

If I come off of top of world and take trail 19 to trail 20 and then take 20 all of the way around to 19 how long will that take ?

It usually has less traffic than the rest of the area also. That's what I like about it.

Is that cave on trail 21?

With a group. Over a hour.
Fast pace. 20 minuets.

20 is 6.4 miles. So it depends on how fast you drive. That's like a 20 minute ride for @Hondasxs but probably 45-60 minutes for Most people.

thanks for your map and advice. Any other tips and maps. I’ve got all day Saturday Sunday morning to ride too. I’ve got a buddy from Tennessee meeting me Saturday morning.

I usually do one of these routes.

Does anyone know what trail this spot is on. I forgot the trail number

I think this is the waterfall to the right of 20 on my map.

Hickory creek trail. 37 I think.

Hickory creek trail. 37 I think.

Is that the “swimming hole” I’ve seen people talk about?

I've seen people swim there before so I guess it is.

That seems right. hickory creek falls on this map maybe.
