Palisades East Trail Access provides two parking areas (Indian Trail and Whitewater Creek lots) with a combined 76 spaces for accessing approximately 5 miles of easy-to-difficult trails along the Chattahoochee River.

The Whitewater Creek area includes a canoe and raft launch (step-down ramp with 4 steps) for paddlers, while anglers can fish the cold-water section with a valid Georgia fishing license and trout stamp.

A $5 daily or $40 annual park pass is required for vehicle parking; the area is open from one-half hour before sunrise to one-half hour after sunset.
