Discover the Best Hikes in Birmingham, Alabama
Where railroads ran and mines once burrowed into mountains, the healed landscape is repurposed for beautiful hiking and biking opportunities. New and expanding venues around the city provide more chances to get outside and to appreciate the labor and industry that built the city. Explore 35 of Birmingham's best, five-star trails, divided into six distinct areas in and around the city.
With the expert guidance of local author Thomas M. Spencer, you'll find yourself on an Appalachian mountain peak or on the banks of the Cahaba River, as it broadens to snake through the Coastal Plain. Visit old-growth forest in the Sipsey Wilderness, or hike down into the "Grand Canyon of the East" at Little River Canyon. Across this landscape, you'll find a diversity of plant and animal species--some rare and endangered--rivaling those found anywhere else in North America.
