Taylor Ridge Trail

Taylor Ridge Trail is a moderate 2.4-mile out-and-back hike in Walker County, Georgia, following an old overgrown road through the Chattahoochee National Forest to Forest Service Road 635-A. The trail traverses the slopes of Taylor Ridge, offering a peaceful walk through a mixed hardwood forest with occasional views through the trees. The route follows the contours of the mountain, maintaining a relatively consistent grade that makes for comfortable hiking. While not as dramatically scenic as some nearby trails, Taylor Ridge provides a quieter alternative for those seeking solitude in the woods. The forest supports diverse wildlife, and the old roadbed makes for easy walking. This trail can be combined with others in the Armuchee Ridges area for extended hiking adventures. Spring wildflowers and fall colors add seasonal interest to this peaceful woodland walk.
