Trail Overview

This is an out-and-back trail commonly found in the Chattahoochee National Forest. The route follows a mostly gravel road with some dirt and muddy sections. While it's generally maintained, expect occasional ruts and minor washouts. Most high-clearance vehicles should have no trouble. The trail is single-lane with several pull-off spots for passing. There's a wide turnaround area at the end that also makes a good dispersed camping spot. Some parts of the trail run alongside steep drop-offs--drive with caution, especially in wet conditions. Expect little to no cell coverage in this area. Come prepared with emergency supplies and navigation tools.
