You can mountain bike an easy 13.0 miles (20.9 km) through the Blankets Creek system, gaining 518 feet (158 metres) in about 1 hour and 47 minutes. This route combines three distinct loops, offering varied terrain from fast-flowing cross-country sections with rocks and roots to "new school" flow with bermed turns. As you ride, you'll often follow the hillside above Lake Allatoona, with the Van Michael Loop providing an incredible view of the lake from "Kevorkian Pass." The South Loop adds a more technical, "old style" singletrack challenge, featuring significant rocks and roots for a different kind of ride.
The Blankets Creek trail system is a popular spot for mountain biking, so you can expect a lively atmosphere. General parking is available directly at the trailhead, making access straightforward for your visit. While there are no specific warnings about snow, road closures, or permits mentioned, it is always a good idea to check local conditions before you head out, especially for current trail status.
This route stands out by blending three unique experiences into one continuous ride: the Dwelling, South, and Van Michael Loops. You get a mix of fast cross-country, flowing berms, and technical singletrack, all within a single outing. This diversity makes it a great option if you are looking for a comprehensive mountain biking adventure that keeps things interesting from start to finish.
