You will be able to ride all the trails at Pinnacle within a day. If you can find a local to show you the way, you can make it over to Indian Ridge. We always stay at the Executive Inn when we head there. There is a great ATV store there too.

You definitely won't want to ride 4 days in a row at Pinnacle so you better start planning to head to Indian Ridge even if you trailer for the 40 minute drive. You might want to check out Burning Rock too.

pretty sure they own the Executive Inn too. You can go over their for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. There is a bar and big screen.

Watched the Superbowl there 2 years ago. If I were going for 2 days, I will still do a one day ride at Pinnacle and then spend the 2nd day at Indian Ridge.

If you are truly into hard core hill climbing...you have to find a local to take you to the power lines about 10 miles from there. There are 6 mountain plateaus...every time you think you reached the top there is another one in front of you. I did them all on a 450r and a 400ex. They could be rutted out too much now though...you just never know.

I'll be there from the 13th to the 20th. Hitting Indian Ridge, Rockhouse, Buffalo Mountain, and then going down to Black Mountain in Kentucky. Can't wait.

We just did 3 days a couple of weeks ago. Rode Little Coal twice & Bearswallow once. What a blast !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you get a chance, ride one of the trail systems that go down into town, that's pretty cool, & the people are very friendly. You'll definitely want to go back.
