In the first article about the ATV Trails of the Chattahoochee-Oconee National
Forest we discussed two of the great ATV spots in the area. In this article you will learn about some of the other ATV trails that the district has to offer as well.
Located in Eatonton, Georgia, the Town Creek Bike Trail spans 15 miles and is suitable for both ATVs and Motorcycles. To get to the trail, go north on Penfield Road from Greensboro to Shiloh Church. Take a right onto dirt county road and follow it until it ends. Turn left on another dirt road, pass the Forest Service Road 1241, and you will see a sign marking the trail.
Another good trail to ride on is the Moates Knob ATV Trail, which is open to both ATVs and motorcycles. This trail is a spur off of the Oakey Mountain ORV trail, and the directions are the same. Other good ATV trails in the area include the Anderson Creek ORV Trails and the Whissenhunt ORV Trails, both of which are located near Blue Ridge, Georgia.
While you are riding your ATV on these trails, remember to respect the land and the wildlife. Do not leave the trails for any reason, do not litter and do not harm any of the wildlife in the area. Stay out of the wetlands and remember to follow basic safety precautions. When riding your ATV, remember to fend off flying rocks, twigs, and mud by wearing the necessary boots, gloves, helmets, and eye protection.
Don't race your ATV on the trails and roads, as there are lots of unseen dangers, such as ditches and logs, that could seriously injure you if hit head on at a high speed. Drive responsibly and tailor your speed to fit the situation. Also, remember to always carry a first aid kit with you and know how to treat basic wounds. Have a fun time riding your ATV in the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest,and remember to be safe.
