Hey I live down in alpharetta and have heard about these forestry roads and wanna check them out, where is a good place to get started? Everywhere ive looked online makes it sound like the rangers would not be to cool with my truck drivin through their woods
Do not just go driving through the forest. Stay to marked trails. You will find some to look like a highway that you could take a Lexus down and others that 4wd is a must.
@SouthernSilverado42 Find Old Bucktown Road on google maps, then you can use the map figure out how to get to that road. I usually go in through amicalola falls state park, then use there service roads to accesss Old Bucktown and other roads
i live in athens and i'm always looking for cool places like this to wheel.. how many miles long are these roads and is everyone just allowed to ride these trails? i'm pretty interested in checking these out..
You can seriously get lost in these forest service roads. My advice is to get a map before you venture out. You can get them at REI or any ranger station. If you wanted to, you could drive from Dahlonega to Ellijay and never touch pavement. Get out there and explore. It is beautiful.
yeah i will definitely try to get out there sometime soon and check it out. where is the best place to start off on these trails. i'm not very familiar with that area, so i wouldn't really know where to begin.. lol like are the trails linked to all the ranger stations, or is there a specific one that would be best to start off at?
We usually start at the Ranger Camp outside of Dahlonega, but the forestry roads weave all over N Georgia. Get a map, pick a spot to start, and explore. You will love it.
There are no fees. I really wouldn't call it wheeling. Its just gravel roads, some really maintained and some less. I think you can camp anywhere, but just follow the US Forestry service rules. Enjoy.
