HIGHLIGHTS: The Pine Mountain
Trail is a 23-mile footpath, which crosses and follows the Pine Mountain Ridge
in west central Georgia. The trail is inside Franklin Delano Roosevelt State
Park, close to Calloway Gardens, and popular with people from all over the
State. Much of the land once belonged to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, whose
farm was located near the present site of WJSP-TV. Today, volunteers from the
Pine Mountain Trail Association maintain the path which includes many points of
interest and very few steep inclines. The trail was first developed in 1975 and
now is used by over 50,000 hikers and backpackers each year.
This 6.7 mile loop hike passes numerous
waterfalls (although only Cascade Falls is significant enough to deserve the
title), and follows both Wolfden and Cascade Creeks along a wooded hollow that
includes a look at Wolfden, a cave structure located right along the trail.
