Cycling day trip from Augusta to Hephzibah

Here’s a great route if you want to roll from Augusta down to Hephzibah, Georgia! Starting in Augusta, famous as the hometown of the Masters golf tournament and packed with Southern hospitality, you’ll head mostly south for about 35 km. You’ll be on quiet roads for the most part, so it’s easy to settle in and enjoy the rural scenery as the city fades into gentle farmland.

Expect some moderate climbing—the total ascent is just over 350 meters—which means there are a few rolling hills to keep things interesting, but nothing too tough. The ride is almost entirely on standard road surfaces, so a regular road bike will do perfectly.

When you arrive in Hephzibah, you’ll find a small, laid-back town with deep roots and a friendly vibe—perfect for a breather before heading back or grabbing a snack at a local diner. All in all, this is a relaxing ride that’s great for solo riders or a small crew looking for a quiet afternoon escape from the city.
