Visiting Oxford and gave the trail a go for a run. What a gorgeous trail. Mostly flat with good footing. I didn't venture off the main trail, but saw some of them and they look challenging. There was plenty of company, but was not crowded. The trail is plenty wide. Loved it and look forward to running there again.
Ran the Thacker Mountain trail while in Oxford for an Ole Miss football game.Beautiful run,weather was rainy and cool.Even though trail was wet from rain,it was still in great shape for running.Recommend this trail for everyone.One interesting note,ran uphill from road near campus(Coliseum Drive)and when I turned around to run downhill,I thought I was still running uphill.Must have been an optical illusion.
Great trail system. Enough trail variety to appease whatever riding you enjoy most. From flat trailbed to hilly switchbacks. The woodsy scenery of the trails off the main track are top notch and offers some great opportunities to enjoy nature. For those who enjoy the sport/hobby of geocaching this trail system offers about a dozen well placed geocaches to enhance your trail enjoyment even further. Look for even more geocaches in the future as this large expanse offers space and locations for many more geocaches!
I have heard from several sources this trail systems is one of the best in the state.
Even though efforts have been made to mark and map these trails(and there are many) one of it's downfalls is lack of trailhead markers and directions back to the main trailhead.One could easily get lost and disoriented in the myriad of trails spanning out in all directions. GPS use is highly suggested unless you are familiar with the trail system.
