About

The Silver Comet Trail is a multi-use path for bicycling, running, walking, and skating near Atlanta, Georgia. The Silver Comet Trail is a 61.5 mile, 12 feet wide, car-free concrete path that connects Smyrna, Georgia (NW of Atlanta) to the Chief Ladiga trail at the Georgia-Alabama state line.

The trail traces the route of the “Silver Comet” passenger train line that operated from 1947 to 1969.

Together with the Chief Ladiga trail, which meets the Silver Comet at the state line, the Silver Comet forms a 96 mile path – the second longest paved multi-use trail in the United States.
