Special Considerations

No horses, all-terrain vehicles, motorcycles, or mountain bikes are permitted on the Pinhoti Trail. No hunting is allowed from trails or roads, but hunting is allowed during hunting season in the areas traversed by the trail.

A trip on the Pinhoti through the Talladega should be planned according to season. Spring arrives early (mid-March) and colorfully. This is the time to keep to the valleys and enjoy the lush new growth. But in autumn, take the ridge trails and absorb the colors.
