Would recommend you go in a group.I brought my 08 2wd tundra and it wasn’t that bad. We had a few rough spots here and there, but other than that, it was good.

Talladega National Forest 600-1
Open
/
Sylacauga, Alabama/
14.21 miles/
About 2 hours
Talladega National Forest 600-1 is a popular destination for enthusiasts across the Southeast. The 14-mile-long road follows the ridgeline of Horns Mountain located in the beautiful Talladega National Forest. When traveling north on the trail, the road climbs up the mountain from the White Gap valley and follows the peak of the ridge north. The road is passable by most vehicles and is only rough in a few short sections. The road winds through old-growth hardwood and pine forests with several excellent camping spots along the way. There are several overlooks along the trail offering stunning views of the surrounding valleys and mountains. The road was originally built by the Civilian Conservation Corps and passes by the original fire lookout tower constructed on the peak of the mountain. 600-1 has a lot to offer and there is something for every outdoor enthusiast to enjoy. From camping, hiking, overlanding, and exploring, this trail must be on everyone’s to do list.

Stony Lonesome 508
Open

Bremen, Alabama/

About 5 minutes
Like watching monster-truck freestyle in the woods, the objective of rock bouncing is to pilot a highly modified off-road buggy up insanely steep inclines with damage-inflicting jagged rocks in the shortest amount of time possible. Rock bouncer racing is known for its high speeds, big jumps, and intense crashes. If this type of action sounds like something you want to see or experience firsthand, look no further than Stony Lonesome 508. This trail accesses the largest congregation of rock bouncing hills within Stony Lonesome OHV Park and is a great location to see these amazing machines in action.

Talladega National Forest 600-2
Partially Open
/
Waldo, Alabama/
10.08 miles/
About 2 hours
Talladega National Forest 600-2 is a great day trip with a lot to offer. It has a mix of terrain appealing to both novice and experienced drivers. The southern half of the trail is rocky and muddy with several large washouts. Most vehicles with decent ground clearance should have no issues, 4WD is recommended anytime the trail is wet. The trail follows the peak of a ridge along the southern end of the Blue Ridge mountain chain. The trail offers excellent views of both the valleys to the south and the mountains to the west and north. It is an excellent trail to view the Fall colors but is enjoyable at any time of the year. The area is remote and cell service is limited, come prepared and always check the weather as it has a major effect on the trail conditions. Tread lightly and enjoy this excellent trail through the beautiful Talladega National Forest!

Campington Ridge Road

Campington Ridge Road is an excellent short trail located in the heart of Calhoun County. The trailhead is located minutes from both Oxford and Anniston and is easily accessible. The road can be traveled in a 2WD vehicle and is in great condition year-round. The road is located in the middle of the Mountain Longleaf National Wildlife Refuge. The 9,000-acre mountain refuge features beautiful vistas and a varied landscape of pine and hardwood forests. The refuge was created in 2003 on property from the former military base Ft. McClellan.

High elevation ridgelines provide great viewing of the fall colors and stunning views of the surrounding area. This is an excellent short trip and is an excellent area to explore with many outdoor activities available in the area.

Talladega National Forest- 617
Open
/
Talladega, Alabama/
3.49 miles/
About 30 minutes
Talladega National Forest 617 is a short trail located on the northwest border of the National Forest. The trail is partially maintained gravel forest road and partially unimproved single lane dirt. The trail passes through several types of forest including old growth hardwood and pine. It also passes through one of the areas hardest hit by Japanese Pine Beetles. The center section of the trail was recently clear cut due to pine beetle infestation and is a prime example of the tremendous impact they have on forests. The trail condition is very dependent on the recent level of rainfall. When dry, the trail can be passed by most vehicles but when wet, it becomes a muddy, rutted mess that requires 4WD and a fair amount of skill. This is an excellent short trip with diverse terrain and scenery. Combine this trail with nearby NF 616 and NF 600-1 for a full day of wheeling. Check the weather conditions before you go, bring your recovery gear and enjoy this scenic and fun trail through the Talladega National Forest.

Stony Lonesome 404
Refusing to be just another hill climb trail as you see so often throughout the park, Stony Lonesome 404 breaks the norm and offers drivers a doable challenge even on the slickest of days. This trail is great for beginners who want to learn how to safely drop the nose of their vehicle down an obstacle and is likely the closest experience they will ever have to driving a spiral staircase. Start here if you are new and work your way up to the more difficult Badge of Honor trails, such as Switchback.

Switchback is one of the many trails in the 1,465 acres of Stony Lonesome OHV Park. This particular trail, located close to the park's entrance, is extremely steep and weaves its way through several switchbacks high above Dorsey Creek. No other trail within the park combines breathtaking views and technical challenges. This Jeep Badge of Honor trail lives up to the hype as it tests a driver's mental fortitude and a vehicle's mechanical abilities.
