Esom Hill Trailhead is at mile marker 61.2 on the Silver Comet Trail. It has a gravel parking lot and no restrooms. The closest stores and gas stations are near Cedartown. This is a very quiet, scenic, and remote area for both the Silver Comet and Chief Ladiga trails. Heading east, the Silver Comet travels through rural areas and heads to Cedartown.

0.3 miles west is the Chief Ladiga Trail and State Line Gateway Park. The park's arches and picnic tables highlight the state line between Georgia and Alabama. Heading west on the Chief Ladiga Trail is the Tallegeda National Forest, and the next trailhead is in Piedmont, Alabama. There are no shopping or retail areas on this very remote section of trail, so please be prepared and follow proper safety practices

At the Georgia/Alabama state line, the Silver Comet Trail connects to the 33-mile long Chief Ladiga Trail.
