Itinerary:

April 22nd is National Parks day so parking is free.

Jones Bridge was originally built in 1904 as a way to get people and goods across the Chattahoochee River. The last remaining section of the bridge collapsed into the river in 2018.

Join us for a hike along the scenic Chattahoochee River at Jones Bridge. We will cover approximately 5 miles at a moderate pace between 2.5-3 mph with a few water breaks along the way. It is fairly flat with a couple of hills.

We will meet in the parking lot at 9:20 AM for introductions and start promptly at 9:30 AM. There are bathrooms available here.

Don't leave any valuables in your car!
