TRAILS

The Stillhouse Trail is a 1.9 mile trail south of Cumberland Boulevard and north of Paces Ferry Road providing additional connectivity and access to the trail system within the Cumberland CID.

Cobb’s largest commercial district serves as a hub for urban trails, with nearly 38 miles of trails for residents and visitors to explore and interact with Cumberland’s rich natural assets. The multifaceted trail network has many spokes that wind through Cumberland’s vibrant core area, joining eateries, shops, SunTrust Park, 840 acres of national river parkland and more—with some trails connecting to the Silver Comet Trail and eventually to the Atlanta BeltLine.

Cumberland sits adjacent to the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (CRNRA), which provides the community access to a pristine, national park setting that stretches 48 miles in length and encompasses 10,000 acres. The CID’s boundary encompasses two of the CRNRA’s trailheads – Paces Mill and Cochran Shoals. These are two of the busiest in the CRNRA with almost 1/3 of the park’s total 3.2 million annual visitors accessing them.

The Akers Mill Trail is a 1.2 mile trail segment along Akers Mill Road. Just south of I-285 between Cumberland Boulevard and Powers Ferry Road, this multi-use trail connects the Bob Callan Trailhead (at Interstate North Parkway and Cumberland Boulevard) with the National Park Service at the Chattahoochee River’s Cochran Shoals Recreation Area.

The Bob Callan Trail is Cumberland’s hidden gem. The trail starts at the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area’s Paces Mill/Palisades Park and runs three miles along Rottenwood Creek to Interstate North Parkway, over boardwalks and pedestrian bridges perfect for both walkers and cyclists.
