ATLANTA — A group of some 40 paddlers left from Settles Bridge in Gwinnett County on a seven-day, 112-mile journey on the Chattahoochee River to the upper reaches of West Point Lake in Heard County as part of Georgia River Network’s Paddle Georgia 2022.
The canoe/kayak journey is organized to highlight Georgia’s rivers and raise funds for Georgia River Network’s river protection and water trail development projects. The organization chose the Chattahoochee for its annual summertime sojourn to bring attention to the Chattahoochee RiverLands project, an initiative of the Trust for Public Land and other organizations aimed at creating a 100-mile network of parks and trails along the river, including new boat launches and paddle-in campsites.
