Trail Overview
This is an out-and-back trail that follows a relatively easy, mostly single-lane gravel and dirt road through scenic sections of the Chattahoochee National Forest. Along the route, you may encounter a few small washouts and water puddles typical of Forest Service roads. However, there are no major obstacles, and most vehicles should be able to travel the road without difficulty. Just over halfway along the route, you will reach a fork in the road. Stay to the right to remain on the main trail. The left fork is narrower in places and may cause pinstriping on vehicles. There is a large turnaround area at the end of this trail. The area is quiet and remote, with minimal traffic and natural surroundings that make for a relaxing drive or exploration. Cell phone service can be sporadic or unavailable, so it is recommended to plan ahead and bring any supplies you may need in case of an emergency.
