Twin Bridges Trail, Oconee National Forest
This trail goes through mixed hardwood
forests, frequently within sight of Lake Sinclair. It is 1.8 miles long. The
trail starts at Lake Sinclair Recreation Area, in the camping area farthest
from the beach. If you are not camping, park in the day use area and walk
about 0.25 miles to the trailhead. The trail ends at the twin bridges. This
trail head is at the Twin Bridges Hunt Camp and across the street from a marina and convenience store.
Access
From Monticello, take State Route 212 east about 15 miles, and turn left
on Twin Bridges Road. For the Lake Sinclair Recreation Area trailhead,
continue 1.1 miles on Twin Bridges Road and turn at the sign. For the Twin
Bridges Hunt Camp trailhead, continue on Twin Bridges Road and turn left just
before the twin bridges.
