The North Oconee River Greenway Network is a system of linear parks and trail constituting a total of 8 paved miles in Athens, Georgia. It consists of a mixture of unpaved and paved multi-use trails abutting the Oconee River, some of its minor tributaries and other parks within the county. The network continues to be expanded primarily through the use of TSPLOST funding. The network utilizes a mixture of rail-to-trail and riparian right of ways.

The North Oconee River Greenway paved 3.5-miles long a 10-foot wide multi-use path for non-motorized traffic running from Sandy Creek Nature Center, where it connected with Cook's Greenway Trail, south to Dudley Park.^[1] The North Oconee River Greenway is currently being expanded through Oconee Hill Cemetary.^[2]
