Don’t go when it has rained in the last 4 days! It’s so muddy, part of it was closed…. However it still a great trail! We biked it. Not too many people either. Close to food, restaurants, a splash pad etc… really fun and definitely recommend.
Closed at the Lindbergh Dr trailhead. The Cheshire Bridge rd trailhead is hard to fund, homeless folks, trash, bad. Stay away.Too bad, because this would be a good link from Brookhaven to path 400 and on to the beltline
There’s now about 5.75 miles of continuous trail from downtown Athens to its sudden end, which is about .7 miles from where the trail picks up in Winterville. Trail easements are still being acquired, so please don’t trespass past where the concrete ends. This new section from Hancock Road to a mile past Thomas Farm subdivision is lovely, with a canopy of mature trees, views of pastures, and new swings. When complete, the Firefly trail will be more than 40 miles through three counties, but now it is disconnected, with few amenities. For a more complete description and context, please see my prior update from September 2025.
I didn't read the reviews on hilly the trails are. It was exhilarating!I enjoyed this trail. Just make sure that you have good brakes on your bike!
I ride on this path once or twice a year, starting on the Noonday Creek Trail off of Bells Ferry that connects to it. It's a bit confusing as maps don't show it connecting to the river, I guess it is other paths it connects to.
From the mountain to Marietta is a nice section. The tight area another reviewer mentioned is the ramp to a pedestrian bridge crossing, it makes a 180 turn which requires some precision riding. The path goes along the railroad tracks just off Marietta Square. There is often an art exhibition along the path at this point.
As you continue, you end up alongside a cemetery and there isn't an actual path section at this point but you just ride up the road out of the cemetery. Continue straight and the path picks up again. At this point, the path is very underutilized. It connects to Atlanta Rd and follows alongside Dobbins, finally reaching Windy Hill Rd. It then continues to downtown Smyrna, where I like to stop for something to drink.
Beyond here, I haven't ridden in awhile but the path takes a left and goes up Spring Street. You then go around Cumberland Mall and you can connect to a path that goes down 41 to the river or a path that connects to the Bob Callan Trail, which goes to the River.
There are a lot of busy road crossings and driveways entering/exiting commercial areas so be careful, especially of right turn on red drivers who don't look or speed up past the stop line. This is a suburban route without a lot of hammerfest sections.
BTW, all but the first photo are not the M2R, they are pics from within Kennesaw Mountain Park and do not allow bicycles.
It's true: There are 2 very serious hills (10%?, 12%?) starting ~3.5 miles east of Cedartown. But I don't believe there are *any* others of note on the entire Silver Comet.
Great for beginners like myself. Beautiful scenery.
The entire path is lit now which makes it a perfect evening ride. Less people to navigate before Wilshire. If you’re coming from Rock Creek, stay on the right when the path splits because stairs are on the left. FYI, Longwood is closed until Summer 2026.
Effective April 16th 2026, the segment of the Southside Beltline between Glenwood Avenue and Boulevard is open. Though some of the ramps connecting the neighborhood streets to the Beltline aren’t yet finished. The remaining segment between Boulevard and the 75/85 underpass expects to complete within the next couple months.
… between Wieuca and Loridans roads. Note that the extension starts west of Ga 400, making it necessary to cross the bridge over 400 from the previous end east of 400. Well-shaded route through a valley to cross under 400 and a creek en route to Loridans. Still no markers to navigate through the Tower Place area between Peachtree & Lenox roads. Inquire locally for details.
The Old Town Conyers Trail is such a hidden gem! It’s a nice, easy trail that’s perfect whether you’re looking for a peaceful walk, a light workout, or just some time to unwind. There’s so much beautiful nature to take in along the way — from the trees to the quiet surroundings, it really gives you a chance to slow down and enjoy the moment. Definitely a great spot if you want something low-impact but still refreshing and scenic. I’ll absolutely be back! ¿¿
