Sunset Drive Trail

The map needs to be updated. The path was extended under the bridge & follows all the way to the harbor, shops, restaurants, and access to the historic downtown. Brilliant!

Spring 2025 Ride

April, 2025 by pjbradfield

Wife and I rode two sections, first east from Cedartown for about 21 miles to just past the large tunnel. The first 4 miles (or so) is extremely challenging with a number of very steep grades. Our second ride was from Coots Lake trail head , again east for about 20 miles. This is a much easier ride with easy hills.

Overall this is a beautiful trail that is well marked. My only complaint was that every single water fountain we stopped at was inoperative.

Silver Comet Trail and Chief Ladoga Trail

March, 2025 by wildcats144

We rode the full 91 miles from West of Atlanta to Alabama in mid March. It is a well maintained concrete trail that travels through the countryside. It is 95% a straight gradual inclined or decline, except for a few miles in the middle of the trail where there are quite a few hills. These hills are due that the existing rail trail was sold to private owners so they had to reroute approximately 5 miles section around the hills in the area. At approximate mile marker 43 we stayed at the Manor at Beck’s Lake bed-and-breakfast. I would highly recommend the B&B. These two trails are one of the best continuous trails I have ever written. Highly recommend.

Managed to do the whole trail today. We weaved in and out of crowds around the ballparks and even went by the lake. Beautiful ride. A few stops but only one over a moderately busy road. Very well thought out trail. ¿

Simms Mountain Trail

An After Work Bike Ride

March, 2025 by x864qdjnv7

To start with, getting to this trail can be an adventure. Just as I got to the intersection of Friday and Big Texas Rds. the satellite service cut out then told me to turn left instead of right. I advise printing out directions before leaving home. There is absolutely no signage at the trailhead. You just need to know that shortly after you turn left from Big Texas onto Huffiger there is an opening on the right (parking) and a trail on the left. It is clear the RR once continued behind the parking area but this requires development- my view is that it is not currently bikeable and maybe if they don't cut the weeds, not really hikeable come later spring/summer. Cross the road from the parking area to begin your upward grade. The trail has medium sized stones that make MTB tires required. The rail bed is rough and there are lots of pine cones, pine needles, gravel chunks, sticks of varying diameters and some ruts that must be navigated. I proceeded to the bridge over Cabin Creek, crossed Big Texas Rd. and continued to the Friday Rd. crossing. All along there is no directional signage. I just assumed I was on the right trail. It gets confusing at this Friday Rd crossing. There is a fancy gate indicating a private drive but it appears that the trail continues to the left of this gate/wall. However when i crossed to check it out I noted thick mud heavily rutted by what likely was an ATV. This did not look hospitable for a biker so I turned around. That amounted to a 5.5 mile round trip- only a little over half of what I had hoped to accomplish. In my opinion this trail needs a lot of work in the form of signage and repair of the heavily rutted mud areas in order to be worth the trip. Just seemed a little directionally sketchy and impassable at that intersection. You can see the other end of the trail when you return towards Summerville but there too it is unclear as to what the parking situation is. No real signage other than a road sign warning motorists of hikers crossing. Georgia, you can do better!

Silver Comet Trail

great trail

March, 2025 by rickschrenker

Rode from Rambo trailhead north to Van Wert in early March 2025. I think this is the best part of the trail. Very quiet and scenic with few road crossings and the trail is in excellent condition.

Awesome ride!

February, 2025 by chipmattox

After riding a couple of rail trails in Ga and Al my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed having this non-typical ride. The long straights of open asphalt being replaced with wide curvy smooth cement was refreshing. The trail is very well maintained and marked. Love the yellow center lines that keep traffic safe. The primary loop has long spaced center lines and the spurs loops or legs have shorter lines making it easy to know which path you want to take. Plenty of resting spots, and restroom facilities along the route. We have done the winter trip now and will be back for a spring trip after the bloom. Hats off to the Carrollton trail maintenance team.
