Easy Trails:

The Lake Blue Ridge Loop Trail – This .6 mile trail follows a path along the shore of beautiful Lake Blue Ridge and through a wooded forest.

Green Mountain Trail – This trail begins at Deep Gap in the Aska Adventure Area and takes hikers over Green Mountain to some really great views of Lake Blue Ridge. You can take a different route on the return trip that has a slightly more moderate grade.

Moderate Trails:

Benton Mackaye – Appalachian Trail Loop – this is a moderate 5.5 mile loop trail that takes hikers from the Springer Mountain Day Use parking area and over Rich Mountain. You follow the ridgeline along Rich Mountain and can pick up the Appalachian Trail and take it down to Stover Creek and the Three Forks area. About 14.3 miles from the beginning trailhead hikers will come to the famous Toccoa River Swinging Bridge. This 265 foot long bridge is the longest swinging bridge east of the Mississippi River and a popular destination for those looking to take pictures.

Jacks River Trail – this trail is a long hike and perfect for overnight camping trips. Take the 16.9 mile moderate trail at Dally Gap and about halfway through the hike you will come to a phenomenal view of Jacks River Falls. Following along through the Cohutta Wilderness the trail ends in the Alacusy Valley. This North Georgia Hiking Trip requires two vehicles.

Stanley Gap Trail – This 4.6 mile trail is great for a day hike. There are two trailheads, one at Deep Gap and the other at Stanley Gap. Many times hikers like to take two cars and park one at each side. The Deep Gap Trail takes hikers over Davenport Mountain where the trail connects with the Benton MacKaye trail. Climbing up and over Rocky Mountains, the trail descends with a very steep grade into Stanley Gap.
