The DoubleTop 100 is a 100 mile and 100 km trail race across the Cohutta Mountains in northern Georgia. This is a beautiful course with amazing scenery and unique flora. You will run by the inspirational Cohutta Overlook, skirt the cliffs of Turkey Mountain, pass the Gennett p...opular (N. Georgia's largest tree). The course leaves Ft Mountain State Park and follows the northern section of the Pinhoti Trail until it joins the Benton Mackaye Trail. Runners opting for the shorter run (100k) will turn around and return down the Pinhoti Trail. The 100 mile runners will be treated to the vistas of Flat Top Mountain, Fowler Mountain, and Bear Den Mountains before turning around near Bushy Head Gap to return to Ft Mountain. Runners will be given 34 hours to complete the course.
The start and finish is at Ft Mountain State Park. Ft Mountain State Park has a considerable number of day-use and overnighting services such as cottages, campgrounds, and shelters. It also has some beautiful trails that circumnavigate the park and provides many excellent day hiking opportunities. Additional activities are planned at Ft Mountain State Park during the day, such as a kid’s fun run and The Guhati Ring-of-Power Challenge. read more
