Gillespie Branch - FS 287

Trail Overview

This trail is a fun out-and-back ride that starts with a little water crossing. It's primarily one dirt lane surrounded by dense vegetation far enough from your rig to keep away pin stripes. Plenty of room to pass other vehicles. Not too far in are some ruts less than 18 inches, which stock off-road vehicles are capable of getting over; the rest of the trail is a fairly flat, normal Georgia forest road. At the time of mapping, the trail ends early due to a downed tree that has been there for a while. According to MVUM maps, this trail is open to highway legal vehicles only, and is seasonally open from March 15 to January 16 (closed January 17 to March 14).
