Difficulty: 
Difficult
Review: 
Mouse Branch is one of my favorite trails of all time. It offers great views of the lake and surrounding mountings. Be sure to take plenty of water with you and spare tubes. If you have a problem on the trail there is no quick way back. Also these trails can get soupy when it rains.

Right Loop

Difficulty: 
Moderate
Review: 
The Right Loop offers some of the most enjoyable riding at Tsali. It does have some elevation change, and you can combine it with the Left Loop for a long ride. The usual Tsali theme continues and you can get pretty far away from your car. So, make sure you take spare tubes and plenty of food.

Thompson Loop

Review: 
Thompson Loop offers views of the lake and potentially of wildlife. It is one of the shorter loops at Tsali, but does have some elevation change and can be challenging when wet.

Description

Tsali is one of those places that you have to ride if you own a mountain bike east of the Mississippi river. The trails run along Lake Fontana and offer spectacular views. Be sure to take plenty to drink and a couple spare tubes. Ten miles is a long way to hike with a bike.
