This trail circles the entirety of Lake Russell. AND, it is AMAZING! The <br />
quality of the trail is stunning, it is truly epic-quality singletrack! The views <br />
are great, as at many times you are riding RIGHT ON the edge of the <br />
water... i.e. if you fell the wrong way you would be going for a swim. there <br />
is not a whole lot of elevation gain or loss (there are a couple of short hills <br />
to mix things up) as this trail runs pretty much on the water's edge the <br />
entire time. I thoroughly enjoyed this ride, and it kept a smile pasted on <br />
my face! I can't believe I found this by accident (when I was trying to find <br />
the Ladyslipper trail) and that I've never heard anyone talking about this. <br />
it is awesome!
From Cornelia, head North/Northeast on Dick's Hill Pkwy (Hwy 13) and hang a <br /><br />right on Lake Russell Road across from the Lake Russell Convenience store. <br /><br />go 2.5 miles, and hang a left at the sign. go left at the fork and park at the <br /><br />trailhead near the old dam. Then just follow the signs and head around the <br /><br />lake.
