West Point Lake is a 25,000 acre lake with 525 miles of shoreline. Visitors can enjoy a leisurely boat ride to watch the sunset, and you will probably see a few bald eagles while you're at it. Water skiing, jet skiing, fishing, sailing, kayaking, camping and birdwatching can be enjoyed most months of the year thanks to our mild climate.
We have several state-of- the-art fitness centers, three golf courses, two indoor swimming pools and lots of tennis courts. The newly opened Thread Trail is an environmentally sensitive, non-motorized, multipurpose trail designed to increase the health and wellness of the community through providing a safe environment for fitness, recreation, transportation and special events. When complete, it will span 29 miles.
The newly opened 2200 seat Sweetland Amphitheatre hosts several concerts a year. The AMC 10 Cinema is conveniently located in downtown so that dinner and a movie are just steps away.
The Liberty Hill Sporting Club offers sporting clays, guided hunts and corporate retreat facilities on a 700 acre Georgia Centennial Heritage Farm.
In the fall, the Hummingbird Festival in nearby Hogansville draws thousands to this quaint town which features beautiful antebellum homes, plenty of antique shopping and the new Hummingbird Trail comprised of gigantic hummingbirds beautifully painted by local artists.
Just to the south of LaGrange, on the border between GA and AL, sits the bustling little town of West Point. Home to Kia Motors Manufacturing Georgia, West Point is situated right on the Chattahoochee River where you can enjoy fishing and kayaking, or you can dine nearby in one of the many specialty restaurants in the downtown area.
The Roosevelt State Park on top of Pine Mountain Ridge is just a 20 minute drive from downtown LaGrange. Georgia’s largest state park is a hiker’s and backpacker’s haven. More than 40 miles of trails, including the popular 23-mile Pine Mountain Trail, wind through hardwood and pines, over creeks and past small waterfalls.
