Family Friendly Easy and fun for kids of all ages.

Trails are open sunup to sundown. Hikers travel opposite of bikers. The trails are often closed following wet weather. Always visit mtbatlanta.com/ to check the trail status before heading out.

Need to Know

Bikers do travel opposite of pedestrians, please check signage for directions. Be careful of Blackberry brambles across the trail - not good for riding through, but great for Blackberry picking. Benches are placed in several places along trail for resting. Enjoy Biguns BBQ on Hwy 5 and Carns Mill Rd after riding.

Description

This trail is dedicated to Jon Hudgens who was an outstanding athlete, coach, and father, and an inspiration to all who knew him. Trail runners, hikers and mountain bikers of all ages and abilities will enjoy this trail. It's fast and flowy with no hard climbs or steep descents.
