Augusta Riverwalk — Attraction in Augusta

Augusta Riverwalk in Georgia is a wonderful place to unwind and relax at. While my family was in town bike riding the Greenway in South Carolina we decided to cross state lines and ride in Georgia a little bit. That's when we stumbled upon the Riverwalk. It’s a fully brick walkway along the Savannah. My family enjoyed our time here while we took a break from bike riding. Along the path there are numerous picnic tables that offer spectacular views of the river, but the path does not offer a lot of shade. However there is an amphitheater that has a canopy with a couple of benches, if you are looking to get out of the sun. Although my family had a good time at the Riverwalk there is some maintenance that needs to be done. The trellises that are in front of the amphitheater were withered; there was noticeable deterioration of the wood and visible rotting of the wood. Even though the riverwalk path needs some maintenance, I had a wonderful time enjoying nature and relaxing near the Savannah River. I would definitely recommend going to the Riverwalk in Augusta Georgia, if you want to get some fresh air while enjoying the scenery and the...

I was expecting it to be nicer. My three year old had a nice time. He enjoyed the playground and the bridge over the river for the trains. The river walk itself really needs to be updated and tended to. The pavement needs to be pressure washed. There was trash on the sidewalk and in the river. We saw plenty of turtles on the river, one was even on a foam board in the river. Part of the walkway is what I was referring to as 80’s pebble sidewalk. It would look so much nicer if it was pavers or just a cement sidewalk. There was a store toward the end of the walk but we didn’t go in. Look like it sold drinks and ice cream. I will say that our family is originally from southwest Florida, so maybe I’m a bit spoiled with nice marinas and parks by the water. But with that said, we made Augusta a day trip (first time visiting) and I thought that this would be nicer. Especially since they do get tourists for the Masters and they probably visit the water as well, it should be at least cleaned up. There are some historical markers which were...

I really enjoyed the Riverwalk but the parking was kind of sketchy you couldn't tell where to park you have to pay careful attention to the signs I was close to the museum and the Marriott Hotel but once I found the park I really enjoyed the walk.

I assume it's about 3 miles as you can walk at the top level or the bottom level. What was really nice was that along the journey was the water where you you saw the different level measures of flooding in the area that occurred like in 1908, 1928, 1990 and other eras.

There were beautifully crafted artwork either bought or on loan to the city of Augusta. Also there were a lot of historical plaques of which one was a paper mill in the area at one time but I'm not sure of the actual location. There was a photo of Moody 1946 which was interesting.

I was really sad to see so many fallen beautiful trees which showed how the ecosystem is changing and impacting Mother Earth.

I would definitely be going back to this...
