ABOUT
The Riverwalk Run Series is a unique running experience in the twin riverfront towns of McCaysville, Georgia and Copperhill, Tennessee. Each event invites participants to cross the Georgia–Tennessee state line on foot, connecting two historic downtowns through community and celebration.
In 2026, the series joins Georgia & Tennessee in honoring America’s 250th birthday, making it an especially meaningful year to run the stateline. Three evening 5Ks across spring, summer, and fall encourage weekend getaways, local dining, and mountain-town exploration.
More than a race, the Riverwalk Run Series is about movement, memory-making, and experiencing the heart of Appalachia—one state line at a time.
ROUTE MAP
The Riverwalk Run Series features a scenic 3.1-mile paved course along the Toccoa River, crossing a historic steel truss bridge and winding through downtown McCaysville, GA and Copperhill, TN. Runners cross the state line twice—an experience found nowhere else.
With gentle elevation, riverside views, and small-town charm, the route blends history, scenery, and community energy.
See the route map and elevation profile below for the full course.
