Amerson River Park - Cycling in Macon Georgia
Took my ebike for a ride yesterday at the Amerson Park. We frequent this park often. I like to tour the park using or ebikes. The park is pretty big. And you can get lost if you’re not familiar with it. Here are some quick facts about the park:
Amerson River Park in Macon, Georgia, encompasses 180 acres of pristine forests, meadows, and wetlands encircled by a river oxbow. The park features several high bluffs that offer scenic views of the Ocmulgee River and its banks.
Enjoy over seven miles of paved trails suitable for walking, biking, or running. The park also offers a state-of-the-art, handicap-accessible playground, ensuring that children of all abilities can enjoy the facilities. For water enthusiasts, there's a canoe launch at the park's northern end, providing access to the Ocmulgee River. Additionally, a two-mile tubing float is available, starting from the Jay Hall Memorial Canoe Launch and ending at the Bragg Jam Canoe and Tube Takeout.
The park is equipped with multiple pavilions and open grassy areas, making it ideal for picnics and gatherings. Amerson River Park is part of the Ocmulgee Heritage Trail network and serves as the starting point for the Ocmulgee River Water Trail, a 200-mile stretch that concludes at the confluence of the Oconee River, forming the Altamaha River.
Operating hours are from 7:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., seven days a week. Admission is free. For those interested in hosting events, pavilions are available for rent through the Macon-Bibb County Parks and Beautification Department.
Amerson River Park offers a blend of natural beauty and recreational amenities, making it a cherished destination for all Maconites.
