Authentic Augusta

EXPERIENCE THIS

Paddle out to Stallings Island in
the Savannah River and keep an
eye out for wild goats and donkeys!
They maintain the national
landmark's vegetation naturally.

A

ugusta is rich with celebrated
sporting history - you surely
know about the Masters® Golf
Tournament and maybe even the annual
IRONMAN 70.3 Augusta competition. But
this isn't a place just for professional athletes.
Everyday active people have plenty of options
all year round. Whether you want a simple dose
of fresh air or a heart-pumping challenge, there
are tons of things to do outside in Augusta.
Enjoy the scenery of the Augusta Canal,
a short drive from downtown. Bicycle rentals
are available to ride the nearby packed-red-dirt
trails; but if you really want to get your feet wet,
the best bet in town is a kayak trip down the
river courtesy of Cole Watkins Tours. Owner

Cole Watkins is an Augusta native who set up
shop to help locals and visitors alike experience
the unique wild of the Savannah River.
Cole and his wife Ashley offer two options
regardless of age or experience, a rental or a
guided tour. Be prepared to relax and flow
with the current, or work out like a champ.
Either way, you'll want to spend a few extra
bucks to buy a T-shirt and brag to your
friends back home.
Kayaking sound a little less extreme than
what you're looking for? Take it up a notch
by renting a jet ski from Reserve and Ride
Water Sports. Expert equipment and a trained
crew can get you cutting a wake in no time.
And we all know that Augustans really
love golf...disc golf, that is. Augusta's River
Region is home to the Professional Disc
Golf Association headquarters, where
you'll find three courses. Or, check out
the four courses at The Hippodrome
and the ones at Lake Olmstead Park,
Pendelton King Park, and Riverview Park.
Go on now, get a move on!

Whoop-de-doos

The mountain-biker term for mounds
of earth in a trail, sort of like a
speed bump. Going over the ripples
makes riding the trail feel like a
roller coaster - F.A.T.S. is full of them.
