North Mills River #353

North Mills River #353 is a short, scenic doubletrack through Pisgah National Forest that threads the North Fork of the Mills River and is most often ridden as a cool connector between the Trace Ridge trailhead and the North Mills River campground. Expect frequent water crossings, horse traffic, and variable mileages in maps — it’s a mellow, water-rich ribbon of trail that rewards riders who come prepared to shoulder a bike and enjoy riverside solitude.
