Hike Summary: I Parked at Burrell's Ford Campground (N34 58.485 W83 06.884).

My destination was Ellicott's Rock and the Tri-corner of South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia boarders via the Chattooga River Trail.

From Burrell's Ford Campground the hike to Ellicott's Rock was just over 3 1/2 miles one way. The trail was well maintained and followed the Chattooga River.
There where other trails that intersected the Chattooga River Trail. They can be seen on this map.
