Bracken+Mtn.+Challenge



Located 1 mile from downtown Brevard (directions here), Bracken Preserve offers up some sweet trail running. The following challenge is about 4 miles long and has about 1000' of climbing. Think of it as the equivalent to an uphill leg of the infamous Kitsuma Klimb!! Read the route description, go out and give it a try! Feel free to report your times (below). Easy skanking...

**Route Description:** Start/stop your watch from the TH kiosk. Run up the ** blue-blazed Bracken Mtn. Trail ** about half of a mile to the intersection with the ** red-blazed Brushy Cr. Trail **. Turn right onto Brushy Cr. and follow it all the way to its end at the intersection with the ** yellow-blazed Mackey Ridge Trail **. Go left on Mackey Ridge to join back up with Bracken Mtn. Trail and follow it all the way back to the kiosk! And Killian, remember--->
