Planning a first visit to Alpharetta’s Big Creek Greenway

Alpharetta’s Big Creek Greenway offers a paved route through the creek corridor for walking, cycling and skating, with several access points that make shorter outings possible.

The Convention and Visitors Bureau describes approximately nine linear miles of trail with a 12-foot-wide paved path. Its guide links maps and identifies entrances at places including Haynes Bridge Road, Kimball Bridge, Marconi Drive, Rock Mill Park and Union Hill Park.

Choosing an entrance close to the part of the route you want to explore can be more useful than treating the greenway as a single destination. The linked map helps visitors identify access and available facilities.

The trail runs through a natural creek environment, so consult the city’s current condition updates before leaving. A general trail guide does not confirm that every section is open after heavy rain or maintenance work.
