Chattahoochee Bend State Park

Set to open July 2010, the state park is nearly 3000 acres with hiking, biking, and horse trails.  Hit the Trail has put this page together to gather information about the park as it comes to fruition.  

Thanks to Representative Lynn Smith, Dean Jackson and everyone else that are keeping the project moving!
