Bennett Gap is a popular mountain biking trail in Pisgah National Forest. It features some pretty tough, rocky, and steep sections, but there are multiple viewpoints along the trail and on the ridge of some of the taller nearby peaks. There are also some faster gravel sections, so if you are into speed, this isn't a terrible place for the hardtail.
