Johnson Ferry Trail (North)

You can see the river in only a few spots-huge gorgeous houses on the other side. Definitely can hear the city traffic. If you go further past the last post, there is a really cool semi-cave, but don’t cross the creek- it’s private property

Agree with the other comments - pretty boring. More of an out and back than a loop, and definitely easy, not moderate.

The trail is a bit boring, especially once you get past the part next to the river. Getting to the end and finding some space to hang out by the river made it worth it - but that’s all the reward you’ll get so if that’s not your thing then you might not enjoy this trail.

Not the best in the world, believe it might be better to do in late fall/winter

Don’t get lost.

Very easy walk. I went today, on a Friday, around noon, and no other people were out there. In order to reach the little waterfall area, I had to climb over a few downed trees that had recently fallen on the path, but otherwise very, very simple to navigate and complete. There's plenty of shade along almost the entire trail.

It was a nice place to take my dog. Lots of water for him to run in. It was a nice day on a Saturday, midday and it was lightly traffiked. I would go back for a nice place for him to run around.

Wet today. Walk along the river for first mile or so, then through the lightly wooded area to the dam. Not great, but in town and less crowded than alternatives

Easy trail. Great for a dog walk.

Very easy and scenic! Almost no inclination unless you veer off into the woods by the creek instead of keeping alongside the river. (Even then it’s still pretty easy.) There’s a few great spots for setting up a hammock as well. Also most people let their dogs off their leash but I’ve never had a problem aside from someone losing their dog in the woods.

Nice trail and fairly scenic along the Hooch. Mulberry Creek is the final destination and is nice place for kids or the four-legged children among us.

Not the most strenuous trail if you stick to the set route. Going off-path is a better workout. Quit trail with wildlife and a nice view of the river.

some great hidden trails that aren't mapped

Great hiking. Went off the beaten track. Lots to explore. Will be back.

August 27 great day for a tea walk!!

It's a pretty trail in the forest near the river. It's very flat and an easy loop.

A short trail with the river alongside you. It's pretty level so good for beginners.

The trail was easy to follow. Flat level for the most of it, with side trails to keep you by the river. Looks like park service is trying to "restore" this area back to its natural state. A lot of poison ivy growing through the trails by the river. We hiked to the "peak" and continued on to find where two creeks merged. However, this started into private property. Dogs allowed and access to the Chattahoochee to dip your toes. Overall good short day hike.

So nice to be able to be this much in the woods this close to home.

I've been here a few times now. The first few times were in March. It looks like the center and very flat portion was clear cut, which I enjoyed. You can get some closer views of the river if you take the east paths that come in and out. Although the center path was very flat, you do occasionally have to cross a few brooks, some of them have large pipes. The official maps show the path ending at the 4rd brook, but you can continue much further on to a nice view of the Morgan Falls Dam. I came back do do an evening run in September and it was a little overgrown. If there were foot bridges instead of pipes this would be a great walk for someone who couldn't do hilly or rough terrain. It is probably too boring for most people who hang out here.

Flat. Boring. Zero scenic value. Only got a few glimpses of the river through thick trees. The whole unit of the hooch appear disheveled and abandoned. Sort of felt like this was a waste of my time. Worst CRNRA unit I have ever visited.
