Many of the Quarry trails are steep with obstacles and technical terrain. Such features can make the trails very difficult for first time riders but at the same time very rewarding for repeat visits by experienced riders. The trails are located on a combination of City owned land, VDOT property and private property. Any use of this land is very much At-Your-Own-Risk with no authorization granted by the landowners. Please help support efforts toward gaining permanent legal access by showing, respect for the land, good judgment and consideration for other trail users while on these trails. Encounters with hunters on the west side of 95 cannot be ruled out during any legal season so please dress brightly. Care should be taken to ride only on clearly established trails. Do not hike off trail and do not blaze new trail. For more information visit fredtrails.org.
