Mountain Biking Georgia International Horse Park

****   Add a review
#13 of 403 mountain bike trails in Georgia
#232 in the world

The GHIP mountain bike trail was built for the 1996 Olympics. The trail was built to race not for sustainability so in the past 14 years there has been a lot of wash out. However SORBA Atlanta has been hard at work. They have been doing reroutes around badly worn areas and have more planned in the near future. The trail is a great technical trail with fast, fun downhills, some gut busting uphills, a few rock gardens and a new ladder bridge over a fallen tree. There are two sides to the trail: the dirt side and the granite side. The trail does cross horse paths so keep an eye out for them. SORBA also has some beginners trails in the works. It is a great place to ride with great scenery and nothing but the sounds of nature, once you get back into the trails.

Rider questions

Q: How crowded is this trail?
A: Depends on the day. Weekends have more people but it is not overcrowded. I rode during the week and ran into about 4 mountain bikers and about 3 hikers. Weekends you can multiply that by about 4 depending on the weather and if there is an activity planned with a LBS.

Q: How long are these trails individually?
A: Just from my tracker, I believe the dirt side is around 7 miles and the Granite side is around 2 miles. (The 7 mile of dirt is less exhausting than the 2 miles of Granite)
