Email: jeffg@floridatrail.com
FTA Map: 14 Suwanee River
Perm Change: No
Effective Date: 7/28/26


The Florida Trail east (trail south) of SR129 in Hamilton County is closed while Duke Energy maintains the electrical transmission lines. The trail is detoured to the south side of the River. Follow the pink flagging to cross the graffiti bridge (old 129) and use the horse trail that follows the river to the current SR129 bridge. Cross back over the bridge and reconnect with the Florida Trail by going down the embankment back towards the river. This is a temporary closure and will be removed when the utility work is complete.
