Our popular Hike and Paddle trips are back! Guests will meet at the Visitor Center at 8 AM to complete paperwork then we'll start our 5.5-mile hike from the Day Use area up the easy to moderate Riverside Trail at 9 AM. After arriving at the Back-country Camping area we'll take a short break for lunch and then begin a leisurely 3.5-mile float back down the river, ending up right where we started at the Day Use area. Guests can rent a kayak from the park or bring their own and we'll haul it up to the Back-country area for you. The cost is just $20.00 per person (plus boat rental). Additionally, all participants are required to purchase a parking pass ($5.00) or posses a valid annual State Park pass (not a National Park pass) or Friends of Georgia State Parks pass. All participants should wear clothing suitable for hiking and that they don't mind getting wet. Sunglasses with a strap and a wide brimmed hat are a good idea while on the river but not required. Additionally, everyone is required to wear a Personal Flotation Device (PFD) while on the river (PFD is provided with boat rental). Call the park at 770-254-7271 between 8 AM and 5 PM to sign up. All proceeds go to Friends of Chattahoochee Bend State Park.
