Mary Charles Howard/Georgia Hi-Lo Trail

After four years of being frustrated with a lack of safe cycling and economic opportunities in her home town, Mary Charles Howard decided to take matters into her own hands. In 2019, she launched the Georgia Hi-Lo Trail initiative.

After seeing the success of Athens’ own Firefly Trail, she decided to build on the great work of that trail by extending Firefly Trail’s original 39-mile trail south another 200 miles with the Georgia Hi-Lo Trail – through Sandersville and beyond – and ending in Savannah, GA.

Upon completion, the Georgia Hi-Lo Trail will be the longest paved trail in all of America.
