National park celebrates upgraded trails

The Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area will host a family trail ride from 10 a.m. to noon April 20 at Sope Creek in southeast Cobb County to celebrate completion of an extensive trail improvement project.

“With the new opening of more than six miles of trails for bicycling, this will be a great place for family rides,” Superintendent Patty Wissinger said.

The improvement project began in 2008 with a grant funded by the Coca-Cola Company and administered by the National Park Foundation.
