The Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (CRNRA) consists of a 48-mile stretch of the Chattahoochee River and 14 land units along its corridor. It begins at Lake Lanier's Buford Dam, near Buford, Georgia, and continues downstream through four counties to Peachtree Creek near downtown Atlanta.

People come to float down the river, as the locals will say, "shoot the 'hooch", hike the trails along its banks, fish in its cold water, and simply relax.Whether you are canoeing, fishing or hiking, CRNRA is an exciting place to observe animals in their natural habitats. Lucky visitors may catch a glimpse of the playful river otters frolicking in the cool waters or the industrious beaver building a dam on the bank of the river.

The river is home for trout, bass, catfish and 20 other species of fish. The Chattahoochee River is the southernmost trout river in the United States. This is possible due to Buford dam releasing cold water from the bottom of Lake Lanier and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources stocking the river.
