Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area, Sope Creek

City of Chattahoochee Hills Parks, Cochran Mill Park

City of East Point Parks, Sykes Park

Here is the current list of Parks and Trails that are open:

City of Atlanta Parks, Southside Park

City of Smyrna Parks, Smyrna Bike Park

City of Newnan, Linc Rollercoaster Trail

Coweta County Parks, Brown’s Mill Beginner Trail

The Dirty Sheets are open of course but you cannot park at Cochran Mill Park, the lot is closed.

Please stay off the new Expert Loop at Southside Park as it is not officially open.

While many cities and counties in Metro Atlanta have Shelter in Place orders in effect, you may exercise outside. Please heed all closures, follow CDC Guidelines for Social Distancing, and if you do hit the trails, ride with caution and well within your limits, as a trip to the ER will be a tax on first responders and an already burdened hospital system.

Follow these IMBA Guidelines for riding during the pandemic here: https://www.imba.com/blog/mountain-biking-and-covid-19 .
