About the ride
The Georgia International Horse Park hosted mountain biking and equestrian events during the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, and the bike trails are still here. Volunteers keep them in good shape, with solid bridges and clear markings.
The system splits into an easier side and a harder side. Expect smooth flowing sections, some granite rock riding, and a few reminders of the Olympic history along the way.
The park also includes the Big Haynes Creek Nature Center, a golf course, and restaurants if the rest of the group is not riding.
