I enjoyed walking the length of this trail today, and it was very nice. You only have to cross one road with traffic- but there is a pedestrian crossing light to help out. You go under powder springs road, and also underneath the old train trestle that is now part of the Silver Comet Trail.
You can tell that when it rains heavy the creek along the trail will probably flood low lying portions of the trail.
They have some very large trees on it. The Tower overlooks a small pond, and the trail has owl and bat boxes built alongside. Lots of evidence that there are woodpeckers living in the trees. Recommend it if your looking for a trail not as busy as the Silver Comet Trail.

The Wildhorse Trail is a nice hike along a creek that cuts through Powder Springs. When the Silver Comet Trail (SCT) is very busy, this trail gives you a nice quiet walk. Bikes are allowed along this trail as well. Winter offers the best hike since the bugs are not as bad. Still, in summer, the trail is very shaded and is a bit cooler than the SCT. On the Carter Road side, there is an observation tower that gives a higher view of a small bog area where you can watch birds and such. There are a few benches along the trail as well. The trail is 1.7 miles long in total and there is good parking on both ends of the trail. Avoid the trail after heavy rains since the creek will overflow its banks and cover the trail. For a nice break from the SCT, the Wildhorse Trail offers a great hike.
