There is a gravel parking lot located at the Ringgold Trailway's western endpoint in Mount Ayr off of US 169. Another small gravel lot is located at the trail's eastern endpoint on County Road P54. Alternatively, park at Poe Hollow County Park on State Route 2 and take a short walk or ride to the Ringgold Trailway.
"The Ringgold Conservation Commission has recently ""updated"" the surface of the first mile on the trailway with asphalt. It's not as much fun for me personally, but that has helped increase traffic on the trail, which is the point of trails in the first place, right?
It's a good quick spin; flat, shaded, etc. Watch out for the pedestrians the first mile, and the deer the second- I spotted three on my last trip, and they didn't get worried until I was within @90 feet. "
