In early September 2021, I rode parts of the trail. On the first day, I rode from the Tara/Drummond Trailhead westward to the trail's intersection with Bethlehem Road and returned to the that same trailhead. Two days later, I rode from the trail's intersection with Bethlehem Road to Cedartown and returned to the Bethlehem Road intersection. The trailhead was well executed with ample parking and flush toilets. Other trailheads to the west offered less parking and portajohns. The concrete surface was not anywhere near as smooth as relatively new asphalt. I felt a constant jiggling through my bike which got to be annoying after a while going about 12 to 15 mph. Numerous areas of tree debris and leaves covered parts of the trail. Fortunately, it was a dry day, so the debris didn't contribute to any slipperiness. The route through Rockmart was not very well signed, necessitating a couple of u-turns. The surface through Rockmart had me thinking,"Why am I still on the trail when the adjacent city street looks to have a better surface?" West of Rockmart, the trail experience is less enjoyable as the surface is more uneven than east of town and openly parallels U.S.278. I returned to Rockmart heading east on U.S.278, a 4-lane 65 mph divided highway, which was a much better ride. The light to moderate traffic tolerated my presence as all of the drivers gave me the right lane with nary a honk. I always ride in bright-colored clothing, a red flashing rear light and a rear view mirror to make sure approaching traffic sees me. On the second day, traversing the trail westward to Cedartown from Bethlehem Road, the trail is even less enjoyable with the stench of adjacent landfill hanging in the air coupled with challenging hills into Cedartown. The adjacent nearly level railroad right-of-way drove home the point that this was not a rails-to-trails portion of the trail. The Cedartown depot was a nice stop with friendly staff. Again, I chose to return to my starting point to the east on U.S.278. The trail is an asset for the area, but in the areas I experienced, it is needs some TLC. If you're in the area, it would be worth checking out. I can't recommend traveling specifically to ride on the trail as I did. There are much better places to ride than between Rockmart and Cedartown on the Silver Comet Trail.
Love the trail - but it's NOT Chattanooga - it is Chattahoochee! Can't believe the HUGE screw up here.
Riding or walking you have many options of paths to take.
I love the Suwanee Creek Greenway. I used to live close by George Pierce Park and I would either walk or ride the entire length of the trail and back. It's the best exercise. It's long enough to get in 20,000 steps in for the day and short enough to get in tons of miles on the bike with multiple trips. The boardwalks are great over the swampy areas and during the reptile mating season, it's cool to stop on the bridge heading south before you get to Sugarloaf Pkwy and watch the snake gathering along the stream of water coming from the community pond. There are no steep climbs for either walking or riding. The hills are near Suwanee Creek Park and the rest is relatively flat.
Mostly populated by Cyclists, joggers, skaters, walkers, and people on electric rental scooters. Great trail! If you’re someone that rides, skate, run, or walk everyday you just have ru be careful for the people that are out there and don’t do it everyday. They will Get directly in your way unintentionally. There are lots of restaurants and bars to stop and chill while you’re out there.
Bout too many challenging hills but its length makes for a great work out. It’s mostly populated everyday by cyclists, walkers, and joggers. Has a few good views and even a public outdoor workout facility.
Has a few tough hills to climb on your bike and you can ride a little off road if you want. Gives a nice work out
It was a very nice experience !!! Well maintan, beautifull view. 👍
The Silver Comet is an excellent RT biking experience. There is one glitch to the trail. The trail ceases to be over the original railroad bead in Cedartown, Ga. From the Alabama / Georgia connect with Chief Ladiga trail to Cedartown, Ga the trail is over the original railroad bead, but it leaves in Cedartown and is somewhat hilly but paved. We started on it but turned back. We are in our 70s. From the west side of Cedartown to the end it is fully paved, concrete, and wide. You will love this trail. My first experience was around 18 years ago and rode it several times. It is exceptionally well kept up. Now in my 70s my wife and I rode this RT in November of 2020, and we look forward to riding it many more times.
Fantastic trail to ride and love how it connects to the Arabia mtn and panola mtn trails! We started at the monastery which is a great start point. Glad I have an ebike because of the hills!!
This is an easy fun mostly flat "ish" trail. A bit crowded more south but put a bell on your bike to warn walkers and most are great. Hint parking is easier under 400 in lot by river.
