… 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! ¿¿
Parked in Old Starsville Rd parking lot. Rode to Mansfield and back. About half the trail. It is pretty flat very nice ride. This is very nice, shaded, and paved. Will definitely ride again
The parking for this trail is in the parking lot for Old Town, but the trail starts 1 block south of old town
I rode the Powder springs to Hiram area on a Sunday. I parked at Dillard St. connector. A few parking spots available. That was an easy, pleasant ride. I also parked at the Rambo nursery TH, off highway 6. This was a good spot for ride across the Pumpkinvine Trestle bridge and the Brushy Mountain Tunnel. There were many massive boulders along this stretch which made for an unexpected, beautiful ride.
I also rode from Cedartown Train depot towards Rockmart and quickly encountered hills and big elevation changes. I rode only a few miles and returned to start. This was also a remote area once out of Cedartown, either direction. Check your sources for all elevation changes along trail.
I love this trail, my imagination runs wild thinking about the history behind it. Very well maintained and freshly paved. I hope they continue to expand it.
Named after the famous train that was also named after the greatest horse of all time. I love the history behind this trail. The trail follows the path of the retired diesel train. Well paved and maintained. Stop by the chamber of Commerce in Hamilton for souvenirs and free refreshments.
This, our first ride planned from the TrailLink app was absolutely delightful. The earlier reviews helped us plan our day, parking in the free garage deck was very convenient. The scenery was varied and surprisingly peaceful considering the proximity to Atlanta. We met friendly folks and were able to complete approximately forty miles out and back.
This trail is my absolute favorite. It's so serene and peaceful. It's well maintained. My favorite part is riding the bridge over the Alcovy River. Depending on where you park there's several places to eat, or grab snacks. A great coffee shop in Mansfield called Your Perfect Cup or grab some delicious Ice cream from Marketplace CREAMERY also in Mansfield. Plenty of places to eat and shop in Downtown Covington. Be sure to plan a visit, you will not be disappointed.
Very nice ride. The inclines are a bit long, which makes the downhills a breeze!
If you’re up for the challenge of nearly continuous hills, you’ll be rewarded with a lovely ride through nature on this well/signed, well-maintained trail. It’s a great training ride! One suggestion I have for riders doing the Rockdale River Trail is to start at Lorraine Park— where there’s a public bathroom— and bike the three miles to the monastery, then turn back to your car. At that point you can decide if you feel exhausted by the hills or warmed up enough to continue to Panola Mountain State Park, etc. As reviewers said, this trail connects to Arabia Mountain trails, Panola Park trails, and at least part of the South River trail of you wish to extend your ride. Today I turned back at the start of the Arabia Mountain trail, went past the lake to the state park and visited the nature center (which has snacks and drinks for sale during the day), then took the lake loop to get me back on the Rockdale River Trail. The maps on the trail are great and I only got confused once, near the state park where I almost turned toward the Rock Road spur instead. The trail is hilly but mostly shaded, except where it briefly passes through power easements and a few stints along the road. There are two road crossings, one of them with high speed vehicles, so keep that in mind if you have little ones with you. I saw the Rockdale County trail maintenance people and thanked them for their work… the shoulders are clearly regularly mowed and grass/dirt encroachment is almost non existent. The pavement still looks great, even if the paint is fading. All impressive considering the challenging terrain.
