Description
The Noxubee Crest Trail is a network of trails for hiking and bicycling which has recently opened in the Ackerman Unit of the Tombigbee National Forest. The 26 mile pathway is a combination of single track trail, abandoned forest roads and gated roads in the National Forest lands of Choctaw and Winston Counties. It is designed with a large perimeter loop and several inner trails that all connect to the outer loop such that numerous configurations are possible.
From a mountain biking perspective the technical difficulty of the single track varies from easy to moderate however the region does offer many challenging hills to climb. For the hiker the area offers a view of a large beaver lodge, scenic hardwood forest with deep ravines and a number of creeks (bridges in place).

Directions to Hike
Directions from Starkville to the South trailhead: Take Highway 12 to Sturgis then turn LEFT on the Sturgis-Louisville Road. In 9.2 miles turn RIGHT on Poplar Flat Road and then in 1.4 miles turn RIGHT on Sheep Ranch Road. The Noxubee Hill Cemetery is 1 mile. The trail begins a few yards down Noxubee Hill Road from the cemetery.
