Rae’s Creek Aqueduct & Tow Path along the Savannah River

22 June, Sun. 9am -11am. Rae’s Creek Aqueduct & Tow Path along the Savannah River. Part of the Augusta Canal National Heritage Area, the aqueduct is located over the bridge from Lake Olmstead Lake. The area features ancient stone arches, rocky outcrops, and the rushing waters of a waterfall. The lake functions as a reservoir to retain excess water from the creek, while its dam diverts the main flow of Rae’s Creek into the Augusta Canal. We will hike 3.5 miles out and back from the Aqueduct along the River Levee Trail. Access Aqueduct Park on foot from the Augusta Canal at the Lake Olmstead Trailhead at the end of Milledge Road and Westshore Loop, 2 Milledge Rd, Augusta, GA. Check the location map. Dogs are welcome on leash with poop bags. Bring water and good walking shoes. Leader Cheryl Murga, Hike4LifeASLS@gmail.com Register at:
