Walker County has been awarded a $434,131 grant to pay for the Chickamauga Battlefield Connector Trail, a trail for pedestrians and cyclists that will connect Chickamauga Battlefield Park with downtown Chickamauga.
“Walker County is committed to enhancing access to outdoor recreational opportunities for residents and visitors,” said Shannon Whitfield, county Board of Commissioners chairman. “In addition to being a huge quality-of-life component for our residents, outdoor recreation is the lifeblood of our tourism industry. This project will significantly impact our community by linking a population center with a popular natural and cultural asset.”
