Riding outside knoxville Tennessee

We just finished an exciting ATV trip to Oliver Springs Tennessee at the Coal Creek Company off road park Phone # (865)435-1251. This park has hundreds of miles of off road trails from the beginner gravel roads to trails requiring modified ATV's and extremely experienced riders. This place is located at Windrock Mountain that even has wind farm generators at the top. There is a lot of creek crossings, rock climbing, steep grades, and spectacular views. We started at the bottom at about 50 degrees and wound up at the top at 30 degrees with snow and ice. What a blast. This park is set up for ATV's, side by sides, 4 wheel drive and extreme rock crawler action. It is well organized and everyone seems to respect the environment and each other. The entry fees at $16.00 for adults is very reasonable. There is a campground and cabins available that you can ride directly to the many trails. If we had this in our back yard, I believe it would be a blast wearing out a new machine every other month. I have ridden at Croom which is a lot of fun, but now, after this place, it is like previously scuba diving in the Bahama's and now the only place to dive is in the swimming pool.
