There are two trails that ascend the mountain: the East Loop and the West Loop trails. The East Loop can be accessed from State Route 20 spur, while the West Loop trailhead is located near I-75 Exit 288. The East and West Loops are part of the Pine Mountain Recreational Area trail system and are connected to trails that lead to Cooper's Furnace near Allatoona Dam.[9] The two trails rise over 600 feet over a course of a mile and contain several switchbacks.[5][6]
