Pine log park located in Conyers, GA leaves little to be desired. It is a small park equipped with…read morerestrooms, one large pavilion, a playground, basketball court and very short walking trail. The trail is only 0.5 miles total out and back. The trail is in need of major maintenance and repairs as it is easy to trip on the many cracks in the pavement and down trees. I also noticed a couple of watch out for snakes warning signs along the path. The playground looked well maintained but I didn't get too close to say for sure. The best part of this park I would say is the basketball court because of its large size. It is a full size court with bleachers and looks well maintained.

There's probably as much parking lot area there, as there is park. There are wooden camping shelters there. Some people trailer horses to ride there. There are better parks in the area. On of my favorites is Panola Mountain state park. It's only about a 20minute drive away, and it's a lot bigger, and more interesting. There's a huge park area, and there are miles of natural trails in the woods there. It does cost 5.00 to park, but it's worth it. Alexander lake park is not far away. It's worth checking out, and so is Arabia mountain park, lots of hiking area there, including a huge granite formation like Stone Mountain, only not as high.

I park here to gain access to the rockdale river trail…read more The rockdale river trail is simply perfect for road bikes. It's miles and miles of concrete roads. There are a few places along the trail that lead to dirt roads, if you want to go off the paved road. But otherwise, it's miles and miles of nature and beauty. This trail has all that rustic and deep forests feel to it. After a few miles it might even bring out your inner poet and have you start reciting Robert Frost, "two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both..." In case you might like the forest too much and wish to become a hermit, there are good hills thrown into the trail for good measure. It's a nice balance of even road to let you enjoy the ride, then it changes with hills interval for a good cardiovascular workout. The view is lovely. There's a lake at panola state park, river along the way, farms and even a monastery. I saw people fishing at the lake. I spied wild life such as: Ducks Deer Rabbit There are signs for bike & kayak rental at Panola State Park.

I ended up randomly in Atlanta this weekend and did the quality research beforehand - I looked for…read moreweird things to do here on Reddit, and this creepy Doll's Head Trail popped up. Luckily I had two chums in the area who were more than willing to drive over and investigate with me, so off we went. It was an interesting drive through East Atlanta; I was mostly excited to see a Piggly Wiggly, but I imagine your mileage may vary on such a sighting. I also learned about trap houses. Anyway. The weather for this was actually ideal. The temps were unseasonably low (a concern I had about wandering into Hotlanta in August), probably in the low 80s, and it was cloudy, which gave the whole adventure a spooky vibe. There were a few other cars in the parking lot but aside from two guys fishing and a couple we stumbled across who looked to be up to no good, we saw no one. As hikes go, this is much more of a walk than anything remotely strenuous - the total mileage can't be more than a mile or two, and the first few tenths of a mile are on a paved path before ultimately shifting to normal dirt. I've spent some time in the northern part of the state hiking up the GA high point Brasstown Bald but this area is devoid of altitude; anyone with working legs should be able to navigate this easily. Beyond the doll shizzle, optics are limited. The path goes by Constitution Lake, where we could see a row of turtles in the distance, but that was about it. Pretty meh. The obvious highlight is the Doll's Head Trail/Loop, which probably takes about 10 minutes or so to get to from the parking lot/trailhead. Honestly? Cool idea, and I can see how I stumbled across it online, but a lot of it was literally just garbage. I'm from NJ, and we have a few similar themed paths - notably a Fairy Trail in Maplewood that features little houses with dolls/action figures nestled into tree trunks, etc. Other than a few legitimately neat set pieces, mostly centering on (you guessed it) doll heads, most of what we saw out there was just moldy crap. It's a shame, because I think they could really make this edgy and unsettling, especially come Halloween time. But by opening this to the public to assist - always a gift and a curse - a lot of people seemed to just use it as an excuse to dump some of their old crap from the garage. A shame, and the group that's monitoring the trail (and there seems to be an official one, based on some of the signage we saw) should probably step in and make this more appealing. A random/spooky doll head hanging from a tree? Yes. Here for it. A piece of rusted metal from the 1980s just dropped into some foliage? No, that's littering. My chum did express interest in coming back to contribute so hopefully she can help lead a renaissance for this space. This is tough to recommend unless you're really in the area. I'd focus on something in a nice section of the ATL that's not cosplaying as the city dump, at least until they figure out how to fix this.

Lots of seemingly junk collections, and we randomly met the person who started it who was there to check up on it! Really emphasized not bringing anything not found in the park (otherwise it'd just be a junk yard / littering + keeping non-natural items where you're not supposed to leave stuff in nature). Pretty cool concept, flat walk, all shaded, very short walk. Lots of parking.

Lee, and Stonewall Jackson. The mountain was also the site where the second Ku Klux Klan was founded in 1915. Knowing that history made it difficult for me to fully enjoy the experience. They've built a family-friendly attraction area around the park with shops, activities, and entertainment, but when we visited, it was DEAD. There were barely any people around, and the area felt almost deserted. I'm not sure if it was the day we visited, the cost of the attractions, or simply that people come more for the hiking and scenery, but the attraction area lacked energy. The mountain itself and the surrounding nature are beautiful, but personally, the history behind the site is something I can't overlook. I'm glad I experienced it once, but it's probably not somewhere I'd go out of my way to visit again.
