Highland Park Trail Info
Highland Park is in the NW Georgia mountians and has rolling to steep terrain. If you are an experienced rider, you will absolutely love what we have, but there is also plenty of riding for beginners, kids, and intermediate riders tha want to impove their skills on challenging trails. We have somethig for everyone, the Park is very well signed, we have an accurate map, all trails are one way, and are rated 1 to 5 diamonds for difficulty level.
1 Diamond trails are wide and have only a moderate amount of elevation change.
2 Diamond trails are more challenging with greater elevation changes, but still plenty wide.
3 Diamond trails are for experienced riders. They are not as wide as 1 and 2 diamond trails, they have substantial elevation changes, and they will give you a workout.
4 Diamond trails are for well experienced riders, they have tight turns, big elevation changes, and can be physically demanding. You need good tires.
5 Diamond trails are tight, steep, very challenging, and for highly skilled riders/racers on good equipment with fresh tires.

Beginning of Trail 7 (3 diamonds), uphill under a large rock overhang

A section of Trail 1 (2 diamonds), super fun on a bike or ATV

After a steep climb up a mountain, Trail 13 (5 diamonds) just made a 160 degree left and heads back down the mountain off-camber. Got brakes?

Coming down a ridge trail through open hardwood forest.

Part of the Perimeter Road - 1 diamond rating

The last 300 ft before you roll over this ridge. You are up pretty high here, and there's nothing seen through the trees but sky. The down hill on the other side is quite interesting, and this is a 4 diamond trail.

Looking down a reasonably steep trail we see Glen, sawing up a fallen Oak tree across the trail. The other fallen tree is above his head and you ride right under it before heading up the next ridge.

A small section of Trail 2 - Rattlesnake Mountain Loop (2 diamonds)

Winter time in the forest means you can see everything! This trail is steeper than it looks in the photo, and has a 3 diamond rating.
