Alabama Scenic River Trail, National water trail in Alabama, United States

The Alabama Scenic River Trail is a water trail of more than 630 miles running from Weiss Lake on the Coosa River at the Georgia-Alabama line to Fort Morgan, where Mobile Bay meets the Gulf of Mexico. It follows sections of the Coosa, Tallapoosa, Alabama and Mobile rivers and has over one hundred access points and nearly as many campsites.

The trail was designated a National Recreation Trail in 2009 by Dirk Kempthorne, then US Secretary of the Interior. His successor Ken Salazar designated it a National Water Trail in 2012. The route runs from Weiss Lake on the Coosa River at the Georgia-Alabama line to Fort Morgan, where Mobile Bay meets the Gulf of Mexico, covering more than 630 miles.

Landowners along the route who let paddlers camp on their property are called "trail angels"; nearly a hundred campsites are open to the public, many on private land. The Alabama Scenic River Trail is also a nonprofit that works to improve water-recreation access across the state.

Paddlers can put in at more than one hundred access points along the Coosa, Tallapoosa, Alabama and Mobile rivers, with nearly as many campsites, many on private land offered by landowners called "trail angels." Most people paddle only one section rather than the whole 630-mile route.

The trail's 630-plus miles are mostly covered in sections, but "through paddlers" have completed the full run from Weiss Lake to Mobile Bay. Over 100 access points and nearly as many campsites line the route, many on private land offered by owners called "trail angels."
