Healthy Rivers for All Georgians is Our Goal

Georgia River Network is working to ensure a clean water legacy by engaging and empowering Georgians to protect and restore our rivers from the mountains to the coast.
Georgia River Network works for clean water in partnership with the Georgia Water Coalition . You may also know us as the organizers of Paddle Georgia, a week long river trip on a different Georgia river each June.  We also maintain the Georgia Water Trails Website.

Georgia Water Trails Website

While you're looking around our new site, go check out our new Georgia Water Trails Website. Georgia River Network believes that community water trails can reconnect people with their local waterways. If your local river doesn’t have a water trail, our Clearinghouse is a good first stop on the road -- or river -- to getting one started in your area!
