The Tallapoosa begins about 40 miles west of Atlanta near the Haralson / Paulding county line and flows southwesterly through hilly terrain for about 45 miles in Georgia before entering Alabama. It drains about 720 square miles in Georgia. From the Georgia state line, the Tallapoosa flows about 213 miles in Alabama to merge with the Coosa River about 18 miles northeast of Montgomery and become the Alabama River. The Alabama River flows 314 miles southwest to join the Tombigbee River and become the Mobile River. The Mobile River flows 45 miles south to enter the Gulf of Mexico at Mobile Bay. Total distance from the headwaters of the Tallapoosa to Mobile Bay is about 617 miles.
