Confirmed from Chief Ladiga Trail - Jacksonville State Rest Stop's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews.

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.

Nice little rest stop on this peaceful, scenic paved trail. Actually stretches from Anniston, Alabama to the Georgia state line, just east of Piedmont, Alabama. The most beautiful and breathtaking scenery by far is the Piedmont, Alabama portion of the trail, which is only a few minutes from the Jacksonville section.
Amazing Trail to Bicycle make sure you start at the beginning and go to the end it's only 94 Miles when you include the Silver Comet Trail.
The best walking path!! It's very well maintained and the trees and flowering plants are awesome! The old train depot is a must see!
My husband and I love to ride bikes on this trail. I'm always impressed with the cleanliness and availability of these restrooms.
