I was born in Carrollton and my relatives lived and still live here. As a child I spent a lot of time in Carrollton in the 70s in the 80s. I now live in Oxford Alabama, but sometimes when I come to visit, it’s nice to know this trail is here. I have ridden the entire. Length and it is very nice. I plan to come back and ride a lot more¿
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.
Wonderful Greenbelt with plenty miles...we got 29m out of it. One broken up spot, but manageable. Great downtown area restaurants.
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
Beautiful morning for a ride. We enjoyed the ride and the scenery! We look forward to adding this one to our rotation of trails.
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.
