Need to Know

While this trail terminates at the Walhalla State Fish Hatchery, it is accessible afterhours when the fish hatcher is closed.

Description

This is a nice creekside trail that connects the Chattooga Trail to the Walhalla State Fish Hatchery. The entire trail parallels the East Fork of the Chattooga River, from where it gets its name. This trail has plenty of roots and rocks to keep you focused, but noting incredibly difficult. Along the trail you'll find various wildflowers during the spring, plenty of wildlife, and the relaxing sound of the river. There are also ample opportunities to stop and drop down to the river to rest upon large rocks and soak up the surroundings.
