    This is a hiking park, not a playground type of park as there are not playgrounds, nor sports…read morefields. Rather, it is a wooded area with multiple mapped out trails, and some that are not mapped. You can spend a couple of hours here or all day and hike up to the Cherokee County line if you wanted to. There are multiple abandoned structures which were cool. The kids enjoyed playing in and around them and are there plenty of "off the beaten path" places to explore. People also bring their horses and bikes here, as it can get pretty muddy after a rain. I have also seen people doing photoshoots in this picturesque park.

    So it's a little hard to find the first time, there's no grand entrance, but it's on the corner…read morewhere the firehouse is, so once you know where it is, you won't miss it. Then you travel down a winding dirt road till you get to a clearing with a marked map (and trees) to keep you on your path. This is not a, swing on the monkey bars, slide down the slide, park. This is an amazing park with hiking trails that literally go over the river (stream) and through the woods. Lots of different trails of varying degrees of difficulty. Great for a stroll, or actual exercise, if that's your thing. There's a wide open field with a cute barn, great for photos, that's about a 5 min walk from the parking place. There's also a little creek that runs down the middle of mountains, one steep, the other more gradual. This park has so many different types of trees, flowers, and mushrooms, and insects, with little plaques that let you know about the local greenery and wildlife. Also. YOU CAN BRING HORSES TO TRAIL RIDE! Horses!! We love going bc the kids almost always get to say hello to a horse or 4. Overall, just a really fun outdoor activity. So obviously touch all things at your own risk. General rule, take nothing but memories, leave nothing but foot prints... but we have picked some things for inspiring the kids in science. There's apps that identify plants, mushrooms, and rocks. I recommend having them. Pros -it's free. 100% free. -any skill level hiking -beautiful and calming -not too busy. -great open field with barn for pictures... or frisbee, running and singing songs about nature. Do you. -perfect picnic place -can hunt for mushrooms -can trail ride on horseback (byoh bring your own horse) Cons -a little hard to find the first time That's it. This places is a winner.

    Some of the trails were marked. Pretty easy when it comes to distance and elevation.

    One of the best parks in Atlanta metro as it offers something for everybody. On this Labor Day,…read more"everyone" was here! Most were beating the hot humid heat dipping in the water and a few were hiking. ++ Covered bridge & wooden bridges ++ Water falls ++ Many well groomed trails of easy and moderate difficulty. Some parts of trails are root bound and care is needed. + Lots of parking - Too many people - very popular on weekends = Poorly marked trails ( "you are here" is now marked but people constantly ask what's ahead and navigation questions). +++ Photo ops Easy access and picturesque covered bridge, canopied trails make this park very popular. Though the parking usually is manageable, today it was a mess! But it was good to see everyone out and enjoying nature.

    I really enjoyed myself on this trail. I love outdoor walks and this is a great place to do so. It…read morehas signage to help guide you through the park. I will say the group I went with got slightly lost a few times though they have experience hiking so not sure how clear the signs and directions are due to that. However the trail feels safe and accessible. The people there are very friendly with many greeting us along our way. The waterfall we got to was absolutely beautiful. It's kind of amazing that we even have a real waterfall so close to the city of Atlanta. Parking was kind of limited but we were able to make it work. So overall I have no complaints and enjoyed my time here.
