Confirmed from Lucille Creek Trail-Silver Comet Trail Connection'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.

★★★★★ — Talal , Sep 2020

I love this place. People respect nature and each other therefore it's clean. There are horse trails, hiking, bike rentals, places to sneak away and read a book. If you love nature, the trails in Georgia are for you. Bring a water bottle. There are water fountains and bathrooms look on the map before leaving.

★★★★★ — Karen , Oct 2019

An easy, mostly shaded walk on a concrete pathway. The path is elevated above the creek bed for much of the path and could be a good place for a bird photographer to hang out while waiting for a rare bird.

★★★★★ — Vincent , Nov 2019

Probably the best place to start the trail imo. And sometimes you get to see some wildlife. Update: please put some lights on this trail.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
