This urban river passes through the biggest city in the South, but a paddler would never know it. The area is maintained in a natural state by the National Park Service with several points of access. Read more

Loved the peace and quiet , not a lot of ppl like on other trails i visited. however the trail was not marked properly so we got lost but luckly it was in the daylight. Good adventure :)

The heart of metro Atlanta. Basically reaches just about every city & town in metro-Atlanta. Get out on The Hooch & enjoy nature.

7 miles of trails, more if you go off the beaten path. Intermediate trails, advanced if you look for the challenging cut offs and like to climb. Bring water and your dog (dogs require a leash). - Renee North
