Trail Description: Excellent singletrack, some technical sections, some fast sections, not very well marked though. I classified it as intermediate but there is a short loop that all can ride to test first b4 going on the real trail. Best trail system near Atlanta, in my opinion.

Trail Length: 19 miles total
Trail Type: Singletrack
Skill Level: Intermediate

Chicopee Woods Park is well maintained group of trails kept by the Gainesville SORBA chapter. Since this is a beginner level ride, we’ll only ride the Outer Loop, which is approximately 5 miles of mostly singletrack, with some forest road.
