Name: Trails of Victoria Bryant State Park near Royston, GA

Distance: 5.8

Difficulty: Moderate

Total Climbing Elevation: 702

Type: Multiple Loops

Notes: We lucked up with a break in the week-long rain spell with mostly cloudy skies and warm temperatures of 60-70 degrees. The trails were in very good condition, but covered with wet leaves requiring some caution. The blazes on the trails have been renewed which was helpful. The best views today were the surprisingly attractive rapids along Rice Creek from Victoria's Path. Taking that path was not the plan, but the bridge across Rice Creek to the south portion of the Orange Perimeter Trail was closed forcing us to take Victoria's Path. The Beaver Pond Loop still seems to have no beavers or dams since the observation tower area was mostly dry, despite recent rains. All-in-all, a very nice and mostly easy hike with just few short hills to climb.
