| Looks like Wednesday will be a rainy day. Get your exercise in tomorrow and help
me reach 1000 hikes by Thursday. Join me at Cochran Shoals- Interstate North
one of the most beloved stretches of the Chattahoochee River for walking,
running, biking, and dog‑friendly outings.
We will plan to meet in front of the restrooms around 9:50 am for introductions and start our hike at 10 am. We’ll head north along the river and complete one loop of the Cochran Shoals Fitness Trail. A loop is about 3 miles, with the Columns Drive parking area at the midpoint. Dogs are welcome . $5 daily parking pass is required for vehicles in the National Recreation Area. | |||||||
| |||||||
| How to Get There: | |||||||
| Event Directions: | | Address: 1956 Eugene Gunby Rd, Marietta, GA 30067 Use google map by its address. From I-285 W, take exit 22 for New Northside Dr toward Northside Dr/Powers Ferry Rd. Turn right onto New Northside Dr. Continue onto Interstate N Pkwy for about 0.8 mile and the parking entry is on the right. From I-285 E, take exit 22 for New Northside Dr toward Northside Dr/Powers Ferry Rd.
