The Riverwalk Run Series in 2024 took hundreds of runners through the two historic state-line downtowns -- McCaysville, GA and Copperhill, TN -- when the 2024 Trout Trot 5K kicked off on the evening of April 26.
The one-of-a-kind, 3.1 mile course opens up again at 6:30 pm on April 26, 2025, when runners take off on a path that incudes not only two charming Southern towns in different states. That route also includes a job alongside the famous Toccoa River and across the area’s iconic steel truss bridge — one of only a few left in America.
With so much to do in the area, we recommend staying the whole weekend, surrounded by the mountains and rivers of beautiful NorthWest Georgia. In addition to boutique shopping and riverside dining at RIVERWALK SHOPS, discover the next generation of country music with LIVE performances every Friday and Saturday night at TOONEYS.
Plus, the Trout Trot 5K is just one of the great activities you’ll discover as part of the world renowned
BLUE RIDGE TROUT & OUTDOOR ADVENTURES FESTIVAL!
The series was created by the McCaysville Business Association, a non-profit organization, to further the goal of fostering economic, cultural and social growth within the community. Drive up for the day or spend a weekend with family and friends in one of the area’s hundreds of scenic cabins or mountain town lodging. Our region offers plenty of activates, including live music, rafting, craft beer breweries, hiking, fly fishing, and more!
