Trail Description

Ideal for bicycling, from Inman to Landrum this scenic Passage traverses back roads dotted with peach orchards which are spectacular during the spring. They remind trail users of the importance of the peach packing industry in the area. Past the sidewalks of Inman, cyclists and hikers climb Windmill Hill, the highest point of the passage. Please note that Howard Gap Rd. at the intersection of Windmill Rd. and N Howard Street has been closed and the street sign removed. Look for the Palmetto Trail Sign and proceed on the dirt path to get to the paved part of Howard Gap Rd. Except for a quarter mile on the Cherokee Foothills Scenic Highway (SC Hwy 11) near Campobello, the Trail stays on lightly traveled rural roads. At the end of the final mile through Brookwood Park into Landrum, the Trail connects to the Blue Wall Passage. If you choose, turn left and head into downtown Landrum for unique shops, quaint eateries, and charming B&B’s. Trailheads in Inman, Gramling, and Landrum offer parking and Trail information kiosks.
