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.
We do this trail by bike nearly every morning to get the day started. Refreshing and pretty easy. End to end and back usually takes less than about 50 minutes for us.
We started at Parker House and took the path to left instead of the one along the river. We were on hybrid bikes and it was too hilly for us - turned around. We drove up to the Monastery which is beautiful . We passed under the covered bridge trail … but did not attempt.
This trail is great! We start at Beaver Park entrance and ride all the way to downtown Covington. Eat, ride around all the old homes and homes that have been in films. Great scenery, quiet, clean and smooth. On the way back, we usually head to the Market Place creamery in Mansfield right off the trail at the end!
I rode this trail from the parking garage in Covington past Mansfield and back on August 14th for a total of 25 miles. It's up and down the whole way, with grades rarely over 1%, so not trouble keeping going. It fairly scenic passing swamps, farms, and fields. It also has three bridges, the longest over the Alcovy. The surface is concrete near Covington but transitions to asphalt a few miles out. There are a few tree roots starting to push up, but nothing more than mild bumps. Very smooth, otherwise. Mansfield has an interesting coffee shop I may try on the next trip.
Some things to know. It seems the parking garage (free!) in the center of Covington is the best place to park. There do not appear to be any public restrooms or bottle filling stations along the way.
Went out on this trail with my 11-year-old and nine-year-old, who are relatively new to biking any sort of distance. The trail was really nice, scenic, well-maintained, and easy enough for them with some gentle rolling hills. It winds around a golf course for a ways. We ended up doing 6 miles total and it worked well. As of 8/2025, the Atlanta RC club is mat one end is closed, so we had to find an alternate parking spot. Gresham Park is a nice spot to park in.
We complete trail July 2025. It was a nice smooth ride. Great workout, we will do again many times
Beautiful trail, going to do the Ladiga trail next!, warm this time of year, bring enough water!
Closed from savannah rapid to water pumping facility but can be accessed at that point and continue to downtown or access the wooded mountain bike trail at the pumping station.
My wife and I rode the trail on 6-22-2025 with gravel bikes . Most of the trail is in very good shape. There are a couple of spots with sand over the trail but most is asphalt. Half of the trail is shaded so recommend morning or evening ride.
