Alabama trails · Pinhoti Nrt Section 10
A 11.1-mile out-and-back in Alabama, with 627 ft of climbing. Reaches Rebecca Mountain and other pass/summit destinations. Managed by the U.S. Forest Service.
The climbing leans toward the first third: 47% of the ascent falls between mile 0.0 and mile 3.7. It gives back about 1,259 ft along the way, so it rolls rather than climbing steadily.
