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 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¿
It's true: There are 2 very serious hills (10%?, 12%?) starting ~3.5 miles east of Cedartown. But I don't believe there are *any* others of note on the entire Silver Comet.
The trailhead was very hard to find and when we got there we were the only one there. It didn’t feel very safe. We expected a 7 mile ride but as other reviewers pointed out the trail ends and you are left at a dangerous intersection with no crosswalks. We did cross the road and ride to the end of the trail but we were not impressed. The man-o-war trail is about 30 minutes away and is much more enjoyable. We spent a day on it and loved it.
Effective April 16th 2026, the segment of the Southside Beltline between Glenwood Avenue and Boulevard is open. Though some of the ramps connecting the neighborhood streets to the Beltline aren’t yet finished. The remaining segment between Boulevard and the 75/85 underpass expects to complete within the next couple months.
Parked on Main Street in Pine Mountain, the trail starts there. Rode the 13 miles to the end. Trail is in great condition. Long uphills, then long downhill. Benches along the way but no facilities. The trail goes thru the town of Hamilton & you can stop @ the Chamber of Commerce. We’ve ridden 27 other trails in Florida, my husband says thus is one of his favorites
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.
We had a hard time finding the parking for this trail. Directions on one of the earlier reviews was misleading and wrong. We finally found the north end of the trail and parking after several turn arounds. Off I 85 N heading to Atlanta take exit 79 to Valley. Turn right onto Hwy 29. Follow to 35th street, turn right. Then follow to turn left onto 22nd St. parking is at end of Street where trail begins.
The trail ends after about 1 1/2 miles. Go to right on Hwy 29 and you will see the trail again after about a half mile on the left side of the road.
We thought the beginning and ends of the trail were the nicest parts. Wooded and quiet. Mid section goes through the center of Valley along Hwy 29. Lots of traffic!
I love this trail, my imagination runs wild thinking about the history behind it. Very well maintained and freshly paved. I hope they continue to expand it.
Named after the famous train that was also named after the greatest horse of all time. I love the history behind this trail. The trail follows the path of the retired diesel train. Well paved and maintained. Stop by the chamber of Commerce in Hamilton for souvenirs and free refreshments.
