| Itinerary: | |||||
| This loop first follows the shores of the Chattahoochee River and then climbs the cliffs above it, offering a spectacular view of the rapids below. Although there is overlap with my other East Palisades hike, it follows a different route and is entirely within the park. The walking distance is about 4.5 miles. | |||||
