Park by the outdoor barn or the farm center on the map. There’s a dog park nearby. The quarry has beautiful views and is worth the hike.
Wonderful trail from Bethelview to Haycon. 7 miles one way 1.5 hours Had lunch in lovely Haycon center and back. So 15 miles total
Could stand to be more bike and pedestrian friendly in that it really needs some safety barriers between cars traveling on Barrett and the trail users! Also could use lights or reflective strips at a minimum. Needs cleanup too. Could be better! Do not recommend at dusk or later as there is no path visibility
amazing hike and great views with perfect place for swimming
Beautiful trail, going to do the Ladiga trail next!, warm this time of year, bring enough water!
This has to be one of my favorites. Lots of restrooms, smooth, well used trail,felt very safe.
It is the best trail around Atlanta metro area. Full of nature.
We rode the entire pathway, starting at the northern dam site. This is one of the most enjoyable, varied, and well maintained routes we've ridden! The entire route is well done, with light poles the entire way, elevated sections or bridges thru all types of natural areas (instead of around), and many parks or trailside restrooms. Whether thru parks, alongside the highway, or even past industrial businesses, the trail is landscaped O meadow-scaped), the path is smooth, and
Tons of creeks and bridges shade benches along trail. Wild life. Easy flat smooth pavement .fun! Wheeee!!!!
The trail is mostly freshly paved and in great shape, relatively flat and beautiful scenery!
Today 4-17-2025 my husband and I rode the trail from the Wheland Factory parking lot to the Dam. The first part of the trail goes past some industrial areas. As we got further up it goes past townhomes and downtown. Our only complaint was the lack of trail signage to keep you on tract and mileage markers. There were some metal cutouts with numbers indicating the miles and some very small markers in the concrete itself with markings but unless you stopped to read them, there was no way you could have read them as you pedaled by. The trail itself is in good shape and we saw several crews keeping the grounds surrounding the trail trimmed.
