Explore Sope Creek Paper Mill Ruins

Tucked into the woods on the banks of Sope Creek, stone ruins offer a beautiful, haunting hiking destination. Hike the Sope Creek trail and explore serene woodlands and Rocky Creek sides. This family friendly trail features the remains of one of George's biggest paper mills. Once a leader in paper manufacturing, the mill was destroyed in 1864 by the Union Army on their march to Savannah.

Shoot the Hooch

Shootin' the Hooch is a bucket list experience for anyone in the East Cobb area. Choose from one of several raft trip outfitters in the area, bring your friends, bring your cooler, and come prepared to get wet. Weather permitting, your guide will help you enter the water with a tube, canoe, or kayak. The Chattahoochee River is slow and easy to navigate, but you will definitely need sunscreen.
