Chattahoochee Bend State Park opened in July 2011 and is one of the largest state parks inGeorgia.
And in a little over a year all of the proposed trails have been blazed and now there are over ten miles of maintained hiking routes open.
One of the more interesting sites along the trails is the “Bear” tree found along the Riverwalk Trail. It’s an interesting natural phenomenon that at first glance actually looks like the silhouette of a climbing bear cub!
And although black bears range throughout Georgia, they are seldom seen in these parts. So the casual walker might be a bit startled.
Chattahoochee Bend State Park is a great place to hike, picnic, camp and canoe or kayak the Chattahoochee River.
And although it is Georgia’s newest state park, it is certain to become one of its most popular!
