Review: This is a fun trail just north of Atlanta. It was cut and maintained by the local mountain bike club. It is about 4 miles for a complete loop around the outside and there are many side trails so you can vary the length. It is all singletrack with some roots & rocks and many switchbacks. It is on the side of a large hill and has alot of ups and down. There is a trailhead at the top and bottom of the trail. There is a paved path at the bottom trailhead which will take you to the Alpharetta Greenway if you want to add a 12 mile out and back run.

Review: I actually was one of the first people to use and develop these trails which started off for mountain biking when the property was being developed. A lot of great singletracks and a large network in which you can vary your routes. Some technical areas as well. Good run to check out if you live in the Atlanta area.
