Runner Notes

This is the first trail used in the Trillium Trek Half-Marathon Course.

Description

This trail is entirely singletrack, going through moderately open woods. While there aren't any views on this trail (or any in the trail complex), the open woods give it a different kind of feel, unlike most of the other trails in North Georgia. For part of this trail, runners will follow near to Walnut and Redwine creeks, and the foliage during the fall is outstanding.
