5. Albany- Parrott – 32.3 miles Total distance – 111.5 milesParrott Welcome to historic Parrott, Georgia...population 158. Parrott is located in Terrell County on Highway 520 between Columbus and Albany. Parrott is on the National Register of Historic Places. The Creek Indians were the first to settle the area that is now Parrott. Their village was called Chenube. The original post office changed its name from Chenube to Parrott in 1889 when the town became incorporated. Parrott was named in honor of Mr. John Lawson Parrott who donated the land for the business district, the churches and the school. The original stores were wooden structures. In the late 1800′s and early 1900′s, they were replaced by the brick buildings standing today.

6. Parrott-Providence Canyons – 29.7 miles Total distance – 141.2 milesProvidence Canyons Georgia’s “Little Grand Canyon” is a testament to the power of man’s influence on the land. Massive gullies as deep as 150 feet were caused simply by poor farming practices during the 1800s, yet today they make some of the prettiest photographs within the state. The rare Plumleaf Azalea grows only in this region and blooms during July and August when most azaleas have lost their color. The canyon soil’s pink, orange, red and purple hues make a beautiful natural painting at this quiet park. Visitors can enjoy views of the canyons from the rim trail, taking care to stay behind fences and off the fragile canyon edge. Hikers who explore the deepest canyons will usually find a thin layer of water along the trail, indication of the water table below. Guests who hike to canyons 4 and 5 may want to join the Canyon Climbers Club. Backpackers can stay overnight along the backcountry trail which highlights portions of the canyon and winds through mixed forest. Check it out Checkpoints! Florence Marina State Park
