Description: The latest development of trails to take place along side the Pinhoti Trail.
Though it's not part of the Pinhoti Trail, the Dry Creek trail system straddles
the Pinhoti as it approaches East Armuchee Rd. Riders familiar with the
Snake Creek Gap Time Trial will recognize this area as the start for the 34
mile version of the race. Trails are very well marked with a numbering
system. Bring a map or check the front kiosk to make yourself aware of the
area. This system offers a nice change of pace for a multiday trip to the
area.

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail

Great trail. I drove from Atlanta and it was well worth it. Once off 75, its a beautiful drive too. You go right into the mountains. I forgot my trail map though. It would have been even better if I had the map. The map at trailhead board is old and wrong now (as of 4/28), so beware. Definitely bring your own map. Not overly technical, but decent long up hills and really nice downhills with lots of jump spots. Lots of nature to see. squirrels, deer, turkey, a lady popping-a-squat outside her vehicle right on the main gravel road and a couple enjoying the nature intimately...together...very intimately right out in the open just off the trail :) Got to love the country. Quite a few creek crossings, Wide and pretty deep creeks. They are all definitely crossable though. I guess that would largely depend on the amount it rain recently, but they were a lot of fun. As other reviewers have said, it is a multi-use trail, so watch out the horse pies. The Horses also muck up the trail in a lot of places and there's heavy gravel in spots to help with moisture. They both can be a major pain, but hey we aren't roading it out there. If you go to the right spot you can even hit about 2-3 miles of Pinhoti trail. Overall can't wait to go back better prepared.* Review edited 4/30/2012

Nice trails with several deep creek crossings. There's some great singletrack, with some doubletrack mixed in.

Good flow to trails , need better trail markings very easy to get misplaced ( never lost ) take a map to avoid getting misplaced. watch out for horse pucks they will slap you in the face if fresh. good ride nothing over the top.

Mostly singletrack with no real sustained climbs or descents. All of the trails that I rode flowed very well. Needs more riding and less leaves to be as enjoyable as it truly could be. Worth the ride if you want to ride intermediate trails all day.

Machine cut trails that wind through the woods on the west side of John's Mt. Mostly loose over hardpack. Trails are rolling and fun but could stand to be ridden a little more to wear the newness off. Wheat was Sweet!!! Great flow and the creek crossings are refreshing. The majority of the trails are machine cut singletrack but a few use old logging roads for a short sections. Will be back when temps come back to down earth. Please be respectful to the horse riders if you come across any. They had a huge hand in getting this place into existence.* Review edited 7/26/2011
