Very nice ride. The trail is about 13 miles long. Nicely paved and not crowded. We started from the pine mountain visitor's center, which had nice bathrooms. There is plenty of parking on a weekday and good restaurants at the end of the ride.
We have ridden it several times. Nice scenery. Well kept.
I’ve lived less than 15 mins away from this trail for quite a while and today was my first time. It was exactly what I needed and it opened up into a park that was small and quaint . It’s very woody for the most part but it does open up on several parts of the trial. It’s great for walking and or running.

Spent the day exploring the well maintained and apparently freshly paved trail! Awesome experience riding and exploring the small towns there. Stop in the Harris County Chamber of Commerce for a mid-trip snack. Great folks there. Get some ice cream at the Hamilton Ice Cream Company. Was a really good day.
Wonderful trail. Steady incline to Pine Mountain. Plenty of restroom spots. Gorgeous scenery. Highly recommend this well paved trail for all bikes and all levels. About 33 miles round trip. Shorten as needed. Seems like an extra 4.5 miles will be added in a few years. Not very shaded in some parts, but we road this in spring, so maybe the trees will cover more area. A few road crossings that are very well marked, and one larger intersection. Free parking in Pine Mountain.
Started at Lumpkin road south end. Easy 7 to 8 mile ride into town. Good access to food etc using exit ramp just before Indigo Hotel.
Feb '04: Started at the park and things went sour. Downed trees, homeless encampment and debris from highway construction made areas impassable. I gave up, returned to parking and took a hike in the opposite direction. The path along the river is bike-able and promising but before you go, check conditions and wait until the highway construction finishes and the area is cleaned up.
This trail is a joy. A bit hilly in spots but nothing too crazy ( going north). It has a park like setting as you ride along the river. The army base was interesting as well. I got to see the parachute drop, some cool old planes, a little history, and the firing range. I was not expecting any of that. I’m glad that I did this run.
Phase VI was opened to ride in August 2023. We rode from downtown Hamilton south to the end which now is just short of the Mulberry Creek Trestle. You can see the bridge decking from the turn around at the end of the current trail in Spetember 2023. Smooth ride but you are riding a slight upgrade going back the 3.1 miles to Hamilton.
NOTE... there are NO facilities south of Hamilton so bathroom accordingly before leaving... :-)
Super easy ride for beginners and/or family ride. Highly recommend
