Confirmed from Carrollton Greenbelt's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
What runners say about Carrollton Greenbelt
At close to 30 km in length, Carrollton Greenbelt is the largest conservation project city officials have ever attempted. It is also the largest paved loop trail to be found anywhere in the state of Georgia.
The greenbelt is one of Carrollton's best features. Whether cycling, walking or jogging, I highly recommend it.
The Carrollton greenbelt is a shining jewel in the crown for Carrollton Georgia. This paved recreational trail is unmatched for any city in the state of Georgia.
Gorgeous 18+ mile paved biking trail with good signs and markers, although there could be several more to specify which is a dead end to certain spots and also better/more signs/markers for a few of the confusing zig zag turns. Overall, this trail is simply amazing.
