There are no restrooms directly on site and are located within City Hall and only when they are open for business. There are three different areas. There is a swing set that has a few "bucket" swings for those that can't swing themselves and a few regular swings. There are then two other similar play areas: one that is obviously built for 2-3 year olds and one that is built for 4-5 year olds. All in all a good time.

This park is actually a sister park of Harbin's Park. Basically, Harbin's Park is three parks. The main park offers mountain bike trails, multiple purpose trails and equestrian trails. This is the only one with the football field and the 2nd Harbin's Park has two baseball diamonds. All of these parks are near each other. By far, this collection of parks is some of the very best that Gwinnett County owns. There is so much land here, the parks do not get overcrowded (probably because they are farther from the city) and there is so much to do here. I'd definitely recommend coming here if you love the outdoors. The scenery here is absolutely beautiful. Review #364] (10th Review of 2016)

I feel like it has something for everyone. There are steeper trails to challenge yourself and plenty of flat , paved paths for all who might have balance issues or just want to take a smooth stroll. There is so much to check out, I have not been around the entire park on foot yet. I just recently discovered the back end where it turns into the Harris Greenway Trail. The park is a great place for a picnic at one of the many pavilions, fishing or kayaking on the lake, biking, playing outdoor games with plenty of areas to spread out, etc. and the facilities are always clean when I've been here (pavilions and bathrooms). It's just an overall, great tranquil park. You can even bring your horses here, if you have them. Highly recommend this park if you haven't been yet.

I really like that one of the play areas is covered with colorful awnings offering sun protection for the kids. Parking is plentiful.

I guess the significant other and I expected more Asian art or shrubberies. This would have been a cute picturesque spot for our engagement shoot but the trees overhead provided too much shade for an early evening shoot. The Rose Garden was unique with its white columns and statues. It wasn't an expansive garden, but it was nice as it was situated in a sunlit area. The park also had a miniature railroad track along with its own town. It looked like toys for the children to interact with. There was a fence around the area so I guess it's only open during certain times. The children's maze seemed fun and interesting... I am unsure of its depth though as we only took a peek inside. The hedge was about 5 feet tall as I could sort of peek over the hedge. There seemed to be another area that might have had walking trails other than just the immediate areas as you enter the park grounds. Plenty of parking to be found as this isn't a popular park. It's clean and nice for sure! There was plenty of nooks and crannies to explore though.

I remember my first visit to the park many, many years ago. The lovely lake and bridges, pavilions, themed botanical gardens, the statues throughout the park, the paved walking trails and the entertaining Vines Garden miniature railroad which has over 1,000 feet of track and runs through a little train town. Although all those things still exist, the park is no longer well manicured and has lost some of the natural beauty I remember it once held. There is a lot of overgrowth of the bushes and trees and the weeds are taking over. It is still a nice and serene little park to visit with very few visitors, but no longer one that I'd make a trip to enjoy its beauty.

Sometimes, actually most times, I use hiking as a way to be alone with my thoughts. To contemplate…read moreand reflect on life and decisions (past, present & future). It's also a great time to pray for my family, friends and the world at large... and simply give thanks for the blessings I sometimes take for granted. I LOVE group hikes, but I cherish deeply the alone value of a solo hike. [ TODAY'S TRAIL ENCOUNTER ] God made me adventurous, there is no doubt about that. The thought of exploring someplace new brings so much excitement and anticipation that I literally tingle inside. So today when I decided to hike a 1.5 mile section of the equestrian trail that I've never taken, even I was surprised at just how eager I was to walk it. I've hiked almost every non-biking trail in this park, but for some reason I've never stepped foot on this segment. Would it be difficult? Would it look different than other parts of the trail? How long before I connect to a section I recognize? And my most dominant thought: Will I meet any horses along the way? I've logged dozens and dozens of hikes here @ Harbins park and not once have I ever met a horse on the trail itself. I find it rather ironic that I get so very excited about the unknown of new hiking trails and vacation destinations, but get so worried over life and its unknowns, especially when it takes unexpected turns. I pondered this clash in thinking as I walked and prayed, asking for guidance and courage for life's challenges. As if on cue, I rounded a section of the trail only to see a deer sitting in wait along the trail. I've never seen a deer just chillaxing like that ever with its legs folded below its body (just like my cat sitting on her favorite ottoman peering out the window). I was thrilled, but I couldn't get my camera out fast enough to capture the image before it stood and ran off into the woods. While I would come to encounter about a half dozen more deer during my short walk, I kept hoping to see a horse. I figured the chances were extremely low since my hike would be shorter than normal (3 miles instead of 9) and I'd never seen one here on the trails before. There is a point on the equestrian trail where you can either continue or taken an emergency exit trail that bypasses nearly 3.5 miles of the main trail. Since I'd just hiked 8 miles the day before, I decided to take the shortcut and give my old legs a rest. But as good fortune would have it, I discovered two riders walking their horses on this side trail. I couldn't believe my eyes!! How odd that I would get my wish on a shortcut route I generally never use. What was even more interesting is I knew one of the riders from church. I've invited her & her family many times to join one of the OFF-THE-GRID yelp hikes that I host monthly. As we talked, I shared the date of the next upcoming hike and wouldn't you know it, she is free! God works in mysterious ways indeed! [ AMENITIES ] What an amazing park!!! * Harbins Park is the largest Gwinnett County park @ 1,960 acres * Trails include a 4.3-mile paved multi-purpose trail, 7-mile equestrian trail, 13-mile mountain biking trail and 4.5-mile hiking trail. * Several playground, picnic pavilions, grills, restrooms, and parking areas including an equestrian trailer parking. * The Football Complex has a lighted walking track, dog park, lake, and 1.5-mile paved trail. * The Baseball Complex includes seven baseball/softball fields, restrooms, concessions, and a LARGE parking area. * The main park also has a water pump in the parking area to rinse trail mud off your mountain bike. * Believe it or not, the public restrooms are generally clean, stocked and SMELL GOOD!!! [ FINAL THOUGHTS ] I ponder a great many things, wishing for answers and hoping for wisdom to better manage life's complexities. Like most people, when it comes to life I just want to know where it's going. Funny how something as simple as a hike can reveal small truths. Truths like how you may never know the twists and turns of your trails, or be able to control the ups & downs of your journey; But if you keep pressing forward with good thoughts, excitement and openness to possibilities, God will surely give you wonders and delights along the way to encourage you. 2019/118
