Located on the shores of Sardis Lake, this is a good rest and turnaround point on your ride where you will find restrooms and water.

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. Hikers and trail runners use the trails, but the winding and intertwining trails are definitely built to be bike-specific. There are a couple different trails with different trail difficulties, and the trails are marked pretty well, so you can create different loops using both the trails and roads.

The South Campus Rail Trail Recreation Area is filled with interconnecting singletrack mountain biking and hiking trails. There are a couple small ponds in the area, and one of the trails goes right up next to the shore of them. These reservoirs are seasonal, and some of the trails can become overgrown. It's best to carry a map and read trail signs as you hike.

Bailey's Woods Trail is a short national recreation trail with lots of wildlife right next to the Ole Miss campus. It isn't usually very busy in the woods, so it's easy to experience nature without having to leave downtown. You can see the college's baseball field from the trail, but you are far enough removed from the bustle of town that you can't hear the noises of traffic.

North Cypress Lake is a beautiful reservoir in Holly Springs National Forest. There is a trail meandering through the forest before crossing over the singletrack trail on the lake's dam. The trail is only open to foot-traffic, bikes, and horses and is a great place to experience nature without having to travel too far from town.

The Puskus Lake Recreation Area is a fee area located in Holly Springs National Forest and features hiking trails, limited campsites, a boat dock, and lots of fishing access. The lake is stocked with bluegill, bass, and crappie and is beautiful, but the trails traveling around the lake do not see a lot of maintenance. That being said, they are usually clear and easy to follow.

The square is the cultural and economic hub of the city. There are a number of coffee shops and restaurants located here which makes it a great place to start and end a ride.
