Gilmer County Georgia Bike Trails-Bear Creek Trail

This double-loop trail follows scenic Bear Creek through hemlock-cove hardwood forests and passes by the Gannett Poplar, an immense, old-growth yellow poplar tree. The 2-mile round trip to the "Big Poplar" makes a great family outing. Sections of the trail are narrow, steep, and the path crosses several streams.

Directions:

Take GA 52 west from Ellijay Georgia for 5 miles. Turn right at the Bear Creek campground sign onto Gates Chapel Road and go 4.6 miles. Turn right onto Forest Service Road 241 and go about 2 miles to the trailhead parking lot at the end of the road.
