Directions to the Swayback Bridge Trail:
Located North of Montgomery, Al. Take US231 North from Montgomery through Wetumpka. You will cross highway 14 and go 3.4 miles to the turn to Jordan Dam and YMCA Camp Chandler. This is old 231 and you can only turn left. You will go 2.4 miles down old 231 till you see a turnoff to the dam and the camp. Look for reddish Sign - SWAYBACK BRIDGE TRAIL. Travel 100 yards to the trailhead. It is a short (70yd) dirt road that connects old 231 and the road to the dam. The trail starts just off of old 231. If you cross the swayback bridge you have gone too far.
