Description: Well built trail with surprising elevation changes. Professional and sustainable design make these trails fast, too bad there's really less than a mile here. Watch for hikers and dog walkers as well, this is a popular neighborhood spot.

For an ITP trail, this one is very nice. Just a few tricky hills, but otherwise this is just a small fun singletrack. Not worth the drive, but riding to it worthy. Loop it both ways and it kick your ass.

Similar Trail: Atlanta hills are the same everywhere in Atlanta

~2 miles of intown riding in a small nature preserve. Watch out for flooding in the area, it can get bad when it rains. Trails are in good condition when they are dry. Watch out for hikers and their pets. With a little more mileage it would be a 3-4 star rating.

If you live more than 5 min away than it is not worth the effort. This is basically a small (couple acres) park for a neighborhood. You will be finished riding the whole place twice in 10 minutes.

They've added a new loop out here which pretty much doubles the size of the network. The new stuff is almost entirely flat but hey - it's singletrack ITP! Another new spur ends at a super steep gravel downhill, seems like this might just be a connector for neighborhood access. Fun times, wish I lived just a little closer - then I'd be here all the time...

Similar Trail: Similar to Yellow River, though obviously much much smaller trail system.

This trail, is really the only option in the area, and it is surprisingly fun, however short, about 1/3 mile has been recently added on with the construction of some new bridges. Watch out for walkers but you can actually get some decent speed on this short trail. Give it a four considering where it is.
