A Scenic Hike at Cochran Shoals!

 

Whether you're looking to rack up some miles for the week or simply enjoy a peaceful walk along the river, we’d love to have you Sunday afternoon at Cochran Shoals. Nestled beside the Chattahoochee River, this popular spot is perfect for hiking, running, biking, and dog walking. We'll follow the trail north along the river, completing two loops of the Cochran Shoals Fitness Trail—a 3-mile loop with Columns Drive parking area at its midpoint. The total trek will cover approximately 6.4 miles



Please remember a $5.00 daily Pass is required on parked vehicles in the National Park.
