“A quick, but gentle climb up to the Five Points Hub.”

— Zack Butler
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Description

The Bankhead Trail is an easy trail within the Cloudland Canyon State Park's Five Points Trail System. It begins at the Five Points Trailhead and makes a beeline to the "hub" where many of the trails in the Five Points Trail System come together.

Although it is rated "easy", it does feature a steady climb which makes it slightly more difficult than most of the other "easy" trails in this system. This is the fastest way from the "hub" to the Five Points Trailhead. Like the other trails in the trail system, it is machine cut and features a natural but sustainable surface.
