Event details

Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens will be joining TPL for the groundbreaking of the first project to deliver upon his promise to open the Chattahoochee River to the public. Join us Thursday, November 2nd at 10am at Standing Peachtree Greenspace.

The Standing Peachtree site will serve as the northernmost site of the Chattahoochee Camp+Paddle Trail. This trail offers an opportunity to explore 48 miles of the Chattahoochee River over a three-night, four-day itinerary. The journey begins at Peachtree Creek in North Atlanta and ends at  McIntosh Reserve in Carroll County. The upcoming construction at Standing Peachtree includes the addition of an accessible kayak launch, a fully accessible path to the river, woodland restoration, and upgrades to the access road on site.

The City of Smyrna and Trust for Public Land are exploring a new pedestrian and bicycle bridge across the Chattahoochee River. This bridge could improve connections between existing and planned trail systems in Smyrna and Atlanta while creating new opportunities for recreation, mobility, and access to the river.
