Leaving
the Alabama
Pinhoti Trail, the northbound GET hiker connects directly
to Georgia Pinhoti
Trail. The small town of Cave Springs soon welcomes
the hiker into the Peach State. This quaint community has
a large spring filled with trout in the middle of town.
Just north of Cave Springs the route picks up the Simms
Mountain Trail along an old rail bed. After 12 enchanting
miles, a short jog connects to the remaining Georgia Pinhoti
Trail. Here, you will follow old ridgetop logging roads
(closed to traffic) through a section of the Chattahoochee
National Forest. After turning north, the trail will head
towards Tennessee. Several different corridors are being
examined to connect the Georgia Pinhoti through downtown Chattanooga to Cumberland
Trail.
