The Spring Road Trail is another wide sidewalk type trail which requires the rider to ride alert. The trail is poorly marked and has few Bike crossing signs for the car traffic and few stop/yield signs for the bike traffic. It crosses a lot of commercial parking lot entries and exits and small roads, some of which are very rough, but the trail mostly stays on the north side of Spring Road, which is normally a busy, high speed road. It does have a few crosswalk buttons to stop cross traffic.
This trail starts at Atlanta road, where the Concord Road Trail ends and makes a turn across Spring Road and continues along Cumberland Blvd. where it connects with the Silver Comet Cumberland Connector Trail behind the Cobb County Transit bus station at the Cumberland Mall.
Also, if you continue straight along Spring Road, across Cumberland Blvd., you will arrive in about 1/4 of a mile at The Battery after crossing U.S. 41, a commercial/ office/residential development which contains Truist Park, the MLB stadium where the Atlanta Brave play.
It’s not very long yet, but it’s a great trail anyway.
I haven’t rode a bike in 15 years I got a bike to get daily exercise and my first day out was on this trail a lot of steep inclines that I had to walk my bike up if your a novice avoid this trail until you get your legs up under you
raised boardwalk offers beautiful views of forest, creek, swamp. lots of birds and turtles.
Breathtaking views and amazing pictures , Waterfalls and bridge pathways , definitely one to visit more than once
What a delightful break from from these troubling times! No crowds, no noise, just a beautiful walk through the woods. Although we encountered no one, this is a trail that allows for easy social distancing.
If you love the stream and woods hearing the sounds of birds etc this place is for you!!
Woods, parks, bridges, streams, etc. on this part of the beltline. Great for a casual stroll with the fam.
Less busy than the east side trail, which makes exercise and social distancing possible. Excited watching the development of businesses and neighborhoods.
Easy hills and plenty of shady path. This was perfect for a family bike ride with our 5 year old!
