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!
The Fall Line Trace is an 11-mile paved trail and one of my favorite features of Columbus. It uniquely connects the city from uptown to midtown, making it easy to experience multiple parts of town in one continuous ride or walk. What really adds character to the trail is its historical significance—it follows the old Central of Georgia Railway corridor. Riding along it, you can’t help but imagine the stories and history that once traveled these tracks. The pavement is in good condition, and street crossings are clearly marked with crosswalks, which makes it user-friendly and accessible. The trail can take you from Flat Rock Park past the iconic Burger King Train Station, through CSU, and all the way to the RiverWalk downtown. The trail is popular and often busy, so it’s important to stay aware of your surroundings and watch for other cyclists and pedestrians. If you’re riding a bike, be sure to have lights installed—this is enforced. Overall, the Fall Line Trace is a great blend of history, recreation, and connectivity, and it’s a standout asset for the city of Columbus.
We complete trail July 2025. It was a nice smooth ride. Great workout, we will do again many times
Nice Trail,Found Parking near Church,Smooth Enough for Skates, Could Use Some Maintenance.
The trail itself was nice, but a couple of the parking lots were overgrown. We did not feel safe in the area.
This is actually only about 4 miles round trip. Very pretty and a nice leg stretcher.
Actually a nice trail in a has been mill town.
The trails do have a couple of switch backs at the south end, but these are easily identifiable. As others mentioned, the four lane crossing is the most confusing area near the old Langdale Mill. Just look well across Highway 29 to see where the trail picks up again.
There are actually 6 parking areas along the trail.

The trail is nicely paved and lightly used. Unfortunately, the historical signs have fallen into disrepair. The trail could use paint on the ground if nothing else to give directions where confusion may exist.
Note - watch out for the missing barrier plates on the ground at road crossings that may puncture your tire if you are not careful.
Nice local ride overall.
Started at Lumpkin road south end. Easy 7 to 8 mile ride into town. Good access to food etc using exit ramp just before Indigo Hotel.
This trail is a joy. A bit hilly in spots but nothing too crazy ( going north). It has a park like setting as you ride along the river. The army base was interesting as well. I got to see the parachute drop, some cool old planes, a little history, and the firing range. I was not expecting any of that. I’m glad that I did this run.
Great trail for riding bikes but very poorly maintained. Rode from 11:30 am until 2:30 pm on a Sunday and not one restroom marked along the trail was unlocked and most were very unkept and grown up on the outside. We’ve visited and ridden trails all over the southeast and we were disappointed in this trail. Loved the trail but didn’t like anything else about it, especially the constant dodging of dog poop right there on the paved trail. You would think that people would at least get them in the grass off the side! Safety for your vehicle is also a priority as most parking areas are high crime.
I've ridden this trail a few times in recent years on my annual drive south to Florida. It's only about 11 miles long on the east side and 1 mile on the west side, but very scenic and interesting. I stay at the Courtyard Phenix, which has easy access to the trail over a cool bridge. The Hotel Indigo rooftop bar has a not-to-miss view, although food and service is meh.
