About This Trail
River Levee Trail in Augusta is a paved greenway-style route along the Savannah River corridor, serving as a connector between riverfront areas, canal-related trails, and nearby urban outdoor spaces. It is a useful option for walkers, runners, cyclists, and visitors looking for a short, accessible path close to downtown and the Augusta Canal area.
The trail’s appeal comes from its river setting and connectivity. Visitors can use it as a focused two-mile outing or combine it with other Augusta-area trails for a longer walk or ride. The paved surface makes it approachable, but users should still watch for crossings, bridges, boardwalk sections, and mixed-use traffic.
Before visiting, check current access, parking, riverfront conditions, and any local closure notices. Share the path with other users, use caution near water and bridges, and bring water and sun protection during warm weather.
Trail Notes
River Levee Trail is a short paved Augusta connector along the Savannah River corridor. Always leave no trace, pack out everything you pack in, and if you see trash, pick it up and pack it out.
Stay on the marked trail, tell someone where you're going, pack safety and wayfinding essentials, and do not rely only on a mobile phone to find your way. Practice good trail etiquette, yield appropriately on shared-use trails, and check the trailhead kiosk, official maps, park office, or ranger office for notices about changed routes, closures, safety information, fees, and restrictions before you go.
