Swinging Bridge - Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest
The Swinging Bridge is a 270-foot suspension bridge—the longest east of the Mississippi River—that provides river access for hikers and paddlers on the Toccoa River in Fannin County.
Located on the Benton MacKaye Trail and Duncan Ridge National Recreation Trail, it offers a short, accessible walk (approximately 0. 5 miles round trip) from a free USFS parking area accessed via rough gravel road (FS 816).
The bridge connects to trails on both sides of the river and is popular with day-hikers, thru-hikers, and paddlers navigating the Toccoa River Canoe Trail.
