Description
Beautiful, short trail that runs along the same ridge as the Pinhoti in this area (Section 7), except Cave Creek is on the eastern side of the ridge. The trail begins at the Cheaha Trailhead, and heads south till it intersects with the Pinhoti connector and the Nubbin Creek Trail. If used in conjunction with the connector and the Pinhoti, a loop of about 8-9 miles would be formed, or taking Nubbin Creek Trail down to Caney Head and then Odum/Pinhoti north would form a loop of ~11-12 miles. Cave Creek has some beautiful views, but is rather dry, so bring a good supply of h20.

Directions to Hike
Take US 431 South off of I-20 just east of Anniston, and watch for a sign directing you to turn right (west) to go to Cheaha SP. You will pass the turn off heading to Nubbin Creek Trailhead, and will drive right to the Cheaha Trailhead.

Contact Information
Cheaha SP store has maps (sometimes), so does Alabama Outdoors in Bham and Southern Trails in Auburn. You could also order either the Talladega NF map or the Cheaha USGS Topo.
