Rode from Anniston Alabama, to piedmont, then to Alabama/Georgia line, and onward to cedartown, rock mart, Dallas and to the beginning of the trail near Symirna. This was done at different times from different trailheads, but was accomplished. Extremely beautiful and pleasing. Mostly flat, with gradual inclines and curves and only a few steep hills, east of Cedartown. Would recommend this to anyone who enjoys biking, walking. Well maintained!
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.
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 rode the Chief Ladiga Trail in early March. It was a beautiful day. I started at the Eubanks Welcome Center and parked there. I rode to just inside the “Welcome to Anniston” sign. I pedaled about the campus in Jacksonville, then returned to start. Enjoyed the ride and bought a Ladiga T-shirt from the welcome center ladies. I met some friendly local ladies and a fellow biker along the way.
Wonderful trail. Not real busy. Enjoyed the birds and frog sounds along the walk. Very relaxing.
We were looking forward to this ride a long time as reviews rate it highly. For us it was quite the opposite. The trail did have its moments and from the start looked very promising, however those moments were short and far in between. The first of the issues were the trail closures with no notice at trail heads or reroutes. You merely run into a blockage where your only option is to turn around load up your bikes, go a couple of miles to the next bike parking, unload, ride a couple of miles and hit another trail block. Second issue, the trail is poorly marked. We literally spent more time trying to find our way through Chattanooga than riding our bikes. Trail Link helped but what a mess. I can’t imagine riding this trail in peak season as it was, our ride early Feb, 50 deg late morning saw many pedestrian obstacles. Chattanooga is a busy place, a nice city to be sure along with that comes constant traffic noise.
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
This trail covers City and wooded areas. Starting in Alpharetta is good. Great boardwalks, shaded scenery. Great Day Ride! Saw some Dear and other wildlife.
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
