Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area

Gorgeous trails. I could spend hours walking around. The waterfalls were relaxing. I rested on a few of the benches throughout the park to enjoy the breathtaking scenery. Wonderful experience with the junior ranger program!! You won't regret your visit.

Beautiful National park site right in the heart of the city! Amazing trails, fishing, kayaking and swimming in the summer. Endless beauty and nature to retreat to in the hustle and bustle of ATL.

Nice beautiful outdoor recreational area located in Sandy Springs outside of Atlanta. Kind of a small park and not much to do here but is a nice spot to get a way to for the day and relax along the water. Be fore warned it is a steep climbing down and up, so don't recommend taking elderly parents and/or those with accessible needs to the park. The visitor center is quite small and they do have restrooms inside the center.

On a cross country trip from South Carolina to California, we were looking for a place to take a picture of the Chattahoochee River. We know the river because of Alan Jackson's song, "Chattahoochee." Our search for a good picture location led us to Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area. The area is beautiful, complete with green recreational areas, a walking/jogging path, restrooms, and great views of the Chattahoochee. We were able to get the pictures we needed, and even wave at a group of teenagers floating down the river on inner tubes. The Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area is a great place to escape the city and enjoy nature.

Great place to just go and explore. Went with the school and released some trout, explored the trails and the creek, and even learned a little about fly fishing. Just a great way to spend a Saturday morning.
