Radar Base
Friday October 25, 2024 9:30am - 3:00pm EDT
Get ready for an epic adventure through the hidden history of Windrock Park! Did you know the nearby city of Oak Ridge was born from the secretive efforts of World War II? Oliver Springs, TN, was one of only three sites linked to the legendary Manhattan Project. The radar base we’ll explore was part of a crucial Aircraft Control and Warning network that played a key role during the Cold War, as Oak Ridge continued its top-secret research—an operation that’s still active today!
On this trail, you’ll get to explore the fascinating remains of this Cold War radar site, perched at one of the highest points in the park. The mix of stunning views and rich history will make this run one you won’t forget. If you love adventure with a dash of mystery, this trail is calling your name!
And don’t forget to bring a jacket—things can get chilly up there!

Trail 2 to Trail 11
Friday October 25, 2024 9:30am - 3:00pm EDT
The rock gardens on Trail 11 are the most photographed spot at Windrock—and for good reason! This run is pure fun, filled with smiles, fist bumps, and all the good vibes. While nothing here is too extreme, these trails are the perfect playground to see what your Cruiser is really capable of.
The legendary rock gardens give you the freedom to pick your own adventure—choose an easy line to cruise through, or step it up and tackle something more challenging. Either way, it's always an epic ride! If you're looking for a fun, laid-back run with plenty of excitement, this one is a can't-miss!

Trail 51 and Panther Rock
Friday October 25, 2024 9:30am - 3:00pm EDT
Get ready for an unforgettable adventure on one of Windrock's most legendary trails! This trail throws everything at you—gnarly ruts, adrenaline-pumping ledges, off-camber lines that'll test your skills, and the infamous V-notches. But the real highlight? The breathtaking Panther Rock lookout, offering views that are absolutely worth the journey.
We’re tackling the entire trail, including the lookout and the notorious ledge just beyond. There’s a bypass if you want to play it safe, but for the brave souls who crave the challenge, conquering that ledge will give you a rush like no other (just be ready to pull cable if needed!).
With several wild routes down to Panther Rock, you’ll have plenty of chances to max out your rig’s suspension and show off its flex. Don’t forget your camera—this run promises epic shots and even more epic memories!

NOTE: This trail turns difficult if wet. In the case of rain we may switch to a back up route.

Trail 2 to 51 Panther Rock
Friday October 25, 2024 9:30am - 4:00pm EDT
If you're looking for a day packed with off-road fun without too much intensity, this run is perfect! We’ll skip the highway and take the scenic off-road route to Trail 51. While it’s not a super tough ride, there’s plenty of excitement to keep things interesting and your skills sharp.
And the best part? The views along the way are absolutely epic! Make sure to have your camera ready for that must-have shot on Panther Rock, where the scenery will blow you away. It’s going to be a fun-filled day on the trails with an awesome payoff at the end—you won’t want to miss it!
