Hikes are led by a member of the Pine Mountain Trail Association. Hike pace is according to the people who come on the hike. Hikes are free of charge. We suggest you bring along water and a snack or two. If you have a PMT map, you will see some hikes cross a road during the loop you walk. If you should need to cut your hike short, arrangements can be made for a shuttle back to your car.


NOTE: For directions to the area where hikes or workdays begin, come by the FDR State Park office on GA Hwy 190 or call the park at 706-663-4858 or click here. The parking lots named are on the current Pine Mountain Trail Map. You may also call Maintenance Supervisor Carl Carlson at 706-628-5336 or Vice President Jim Hall at 706-569-0497.
