Summary: Mountain bikers should allow 2-3 hours. The trail gets its name from the large variety of ferns that grow along the trail as it meanders through the West Gulf Coastal Plain’s sand hills community. The trail includes eight bridges and 10 interpretive exhibits.  We have not had the chance to ride this trail as of yet but I hope to soon, and we can then give a first hand description of the trail.

Recommended Route: Will let you know.

Rating: From what i have read and heard about this this trail there is no big climbs and really not to technical. One place I read where they rode the trail and did the entire ride in about 1 hour, but we will let you know more after we get down there.
