Really happy with the quality of materials and that i now own something not made in China! Will definitely be back when i need to refresh my wardrobe! Would recommend a more sturdy postage bag, by the time it got to me in Australia lots of holes in it, clothes were fine but could result in dirt getting on clothing.
I love the bracelet my only complaint is my wrist are small so its way too big on me! But if you made smaller ones I would definitely purchase a couple!
We were fine but saw many people that were gonna be hurting later. As some other posts have suggested, definitely go clockwise to avoid a steep ascent. We ascended on that until we hit the AT and took that to the top. Then we descended on the AT until returning to the Byron Reece trail.
Rocky and at times a little challenging but a great hike. Easy trail to follow, very well signed. Eventhough some parts are a bit steep, it's a very friendly hike. View is nice but in very few spots because of the dense vegetation. One of my favorite hikes - done it at least 6 times - first time with our 2 American Shepherds.
High gain for low reward. The sad part is at least 20 other cars did the same. I recommend looking elsewhere in the area for your nature walk. A bit humid and only did the summit to Blood, not the loop but a great day on the trail! Definitely go clockwise to avoid a steep ascent. The non Appalachian Trail part of the hike was overgrown but doable lots of spider webs.
Very forestry and shaded with almost no exposure. Lots of wildflowers and some berries. Watch out for super sized hornets! Lots of rocks and roots to navigate so hiking footwear is essential and poles are very helpful. Did this one quickly on a short weekend. As always, Blood Mountain is bustling. Tons of flies on top from people leaving food out. Found a copperhead den on the second rock face, so be wary. The Freeman trail is welcome break from the crowds. A tad overgrown, but nothing crazy.
We ran into a yellow jacket nest near the intersection of the trails, but could go around pretty easily. Overall, great trail and beautiful day.

The Blood Mountain and Freeman Trail Loop is an absolutely gorgeous route of hiking trails that winds through beautifully varied landscapes, highlighting the incredible wilderness of trails in Georgia.
While classified as an all-seasons trail, users report that this area is best used in the warmer months, since there are multiple creeks that need to be crossed, and this can be much less fun in winter. Additionally, since this route does include seriously steep climbs and descents, proper winter footwear would be ideal in the case of ice and excess mud. The terrain is extremely different across this route, varied from deep forest to rocky trails and pretty vistas, as the trail enjoys numerous mountain crossings.
Along the top, the beautiful trees have exposed roots which also add challenge before arriving at the shelter, which can be a great place to camp or relax as users enjoy one of the highest peaks in the state. As this route does follow the Appalachian Trail, this is a great option for day hikers to get a sense of what a true multi-day adventure could be like while inside Vogel State Park.
Easy parking at the trail head. Directions from Blairsville: Take US 19 and south for 12 miles. Turn right into the Byron Herbert Reece Memorial and continue to the parking lot on the left. Reviews 1, Sort by:. Dan I. November 7, Britni Coker.
