BMTA ACTIVITY CALENDAR

BMTA normally schedules four or five hikes per month, some “leisure” hikes that are shorter and easier and some 5 to 8 miles and of moderate difficulty. In addition, we have occasional backpacking hikes and more difficult ones that might be called “hardy hikes.” Occasionally we co-sponsor hikes with other organizations. Some, but not all, of our hikes are “dog friendly.” Although more hikes are in Georgia than the other states, you will find hikes in all three BMT states: Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee.

*Please refer to: BMTA COVID-19 Hiker Guidelines and Hiker Guidelines.

Hike to the Extinct Village of Caney Creek

Hike to the extinct village of Caney Creek. See the remains of the only town in America that never had a horse or car in the village. The village was built by the East TN Power Co. and existed from 1912-1941. This village enjoyed concrete sidewalks, city water, telephones, streetlights, and a lighted tennis court. The battery powered town trolly took workers to and from work. 6.5 miles Moderate/Difficult
