Ocoee Whitewater Center - Something for Everyone!

Though not actually in north Georgia, the Ocoee Whitewater Center is a favorite spot for many visitors to the north Georgia mountains. Located on the banks of the Ocoee River at the Tennessee/Georgia border, it is just a short drive and well worth the trip. It is a 4 acre recreation area that offers water activities, picnicking, hiking, biking, a nature-oriented gift shop, environmental education programs, a visitors center and year round special events. Recreation isn't the only activity occurring at the whitewater center as it has become a popular spot for outdoor weddings.
Mountain biking enthusiasts rank the 30 mile Tanasi Trail at the center as one of the premier mountain biking trails in the southeast. It consists of trails ranging from easy to difficult thereby attracting bikers of all skill levels.
For more information, please check out the Ocoee Whitewater Center website.
