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.

Dyer Gap to Dally Gap. A moderate 7-mile hike between two BMT access points via FS Roads. Length and location of hike necessitates car shuttles. Please don’t request participation if you’re opposed to a shuttle on FS roads that may take 30 minutes each direction or have concerns about Covid-19 exposure. Hike leader Steve Dennison.
