Windy Gap OHV Trail System
Wednesday, December 11, 2024
| Other Names | Milma Creek, Tibbs, Chattahoochee National Forest, Conasauga District |
| Last Known Status | Open |
This part of the Chattahoochee National Forest offers a challenging trail system that consists of two ATV trails and one motorcycle trail. The trails are geared for the experienced rider due to the rugged terrain of the area.
The ATV trails have some creek crossings, rocky and gravel sections. The motorcycle trail requires some experience, with some pretty steep hill climbs with big rocks, roots and switchbacks. Also keep in mind that the motorcycle trail is linear, so the only way out is the way you came in.
As of this writing there were no fees charged to park or ride. For current conditions check with the Conasauga District Office before heading out.
