A pleasant stroll can be enjoyed along the Riverwalk, especially in summer. A few nice shops are located along Broad Street, and there is a nice restaurant within the Marriott Hotel. However, this is not the nicest of areas during the dark hours, and has a poor reputation, especially so during 'First Friday' celebrations.

Just passing through town and looking for a nice place to stroll. Riverwalk fit the bill. Walked right along the river among some nice plantings and benches in shady areas. There is a small playground for kids. Enjoyed looking at the houses across the river in South Carolina and watching the boats go by. The outdoor market with a variety... More

CadetTraveler. The recent crime was the first one at the Riverwalk in over 16 months. I don't think it's fair to tell me to stay away at night, because of one criminal incident. I live in Augusta, and the Riverwalk is very safe. The people attending the Candlelight Jazz event on Sunday nights don't have any problems.

This is a small but very well-maintained park. It looks newly-built or improved. There's a playground at one end and some restrooms. It's a pleasant spot for an afternoon walk. On Saturday morning there's a farmer's market which offers a lot of fun stalls for food. Don't go after dark; a couple was beaten on Friday, and the place is... More

This is my private little get-away and I like to stay at the Marriott Augusta Convention Center. You got to get cake at the Boll Weevil from the hotel which... More

The Riverwalk is a peaceful walk. Truly beautiful to behold! I was there at the time of day and week when there were no special activity happening, but my friends tell me there is much fun to be had during 'high season'. Yet, just walking along the path, taking in the beauty of nature and silence, was delightful. A true... More

This is a beautiful place to take a relaxing walk in downtown Augusta. Part of the area is historical and there are several great local restaurants to dine at nearby. This is a great site for pictures, too.

Many of the plants were in bloom, so it was a very nice experience and stroll along the Savannah River.
