The South Campus Rail Trail (formerly referred to as the Thacker Mountain Rail Trail) is a crushed-gravel trail on an old railroad bed.

That being said, they are usually clear and easy to follow.

The trails at Clear Creek Landing Public Use Area on the banks of Sardis Lake are some of the most popular mountain biking trails in the area.
