There are two loops as extensions to the main trail. At the north end, Noblett Lake Loop is 6 miles, along with another 2 miles on the Ridge Runner, a total of 8 miles around the lake. To the south, the North Fork Loop is 3 miles, plus 9 miles on the Ridge Runner, a total of 12 miles. The loop starts at the picnic ground and runs into woods of sugar maple, shortleaf pine, and black and white oak. In some places red maple, sassafras and pawpaw trees can be found.
Many wildflowers dot the rugged terrain.
Other plants with purple flowers are milkwort, four-leaf milkweed, and wild geranium. The white flowers include false solomon's seal and mayapple. Among other species, compass plant's yellow and fire pink's red contrast each other. Maidenhair fern, bloodroot, and liverleaf are also found on both sides of the trail. At one spot, three or four tall black oak trees are standing on slabs of rock outcrops which protrude into the air.
