The Ocmulgee River and its tributaries drain in the middle of Georgia, but the river itself reaches the ocean. Historically the river provided an important commercial travel passage. In this part of the river dense stands of cypress and willow trees line both sides providing a feeling of seclusion while also offering riverside views. Tan sandbars form around the sweeping bends standing in stark contrast to the lush stream-side foliage. For a swifter ride keep right at New River and take the oxbow shortcut; there is a rather tricky rapid in this section so be prepared.
