Plan your visit
Piedmont is easiest to enjoy when you treat it like a basecamp: ride, hike, or paddle—then come back downtown to refuel and relax. Use the links below to plan using the dedicated sites in the Piedmont ecosystem.
Choose your day
Ride
Trail maps, access points, corridor towns, and “ride-through” planning.

Pinhoti planning, trailheads, and multi-sport trip ideas.

Downtown anchors
A Trail Town works when visitors have reliable “anchors” to stop at—food, services, and shopping—right off the corridor.
Visitor essentials
Piedmont is easy to navigate and welcoming to trail users. Downtown access points make it simple to arrive, park, and step directly into the Trail Town experience—whether you’re riding, hiking, or paddling nearby.
