Do not park at the school - there is no trail access. You must ride in from the main Allatoona Creek Park parking lot using the Fern Gully Connector. Fern Gully is only open February - August. There is NO access to the Fern Gully trailhead during bow hunting season (September - January).

Overview

Built by hand for those looking for the challenges associated with more primitive trails.

Need to Know

Only open February - August. Closed during bow hunting season (September - January). No access is available from the nearby school. You must ride in from the main Allatoona Creek Park parking lot. The park's singletrack trails are often closed following rain. Please visit sorbawestgeorgia.org/ for trail status before heading out.

Description

It's a bit of a flat ride from the parking lot, but once you're there, get ready for some technical riding, creek crossings, rocks, roots and punchy hills. Most riders will do multiple laps of Fern Gully and Free Candy before heading back.
