Trail

overview

Hike the dog-friendly East Palisades Trail on the banks of the Chattahoochee River in Atlanta. Climb to beautiful views from towering bluffs and explore a small bamboo forest. The park’s weaving and winding network of trails may confuse some hikers, but nearly every trail intersection is signed with a trail map. It’s still relatively easy to get turned around, though, so if you go, we’d highly recommend running a GPS app. The east side has a canoe launch, though this is not on any of the National Park Service maps.
