Directions:
Take US 19 and 129 south from Blairsville for 9.5 miles. Turn right
(west) onto GA 180 and go 7 miles to the main entrance to Lake Winfield
Scott Campground. Turn left into the campground. Follow this road over a
hill and continue straight ahead into a gravel parking lot at the foot of
the hill. From the parking lot, hike along the paved road passing the
guard rail at the head of the lake. The trailhead is on the right of the
road just past the guard rails.
