The Suwanee Creek Greenway is a 4.0-mile (6.4 km) multi-use trail under construction in the city of Suwanee, Georgia, in the United States.[1][2] The trail is a hard-surface and meanders through four miles of wooded areas, wetlands, and wildlife habitat. The greenway connects nearly 400 acres of parkland as well as residential and commercial areas.
On February 27, 2018, the greenway was designated as one of the signature trails of Gwinnett County.[3]
