    I recently moved to Dacula and now this park is 5 min away from me and I absolutely love it! There's four entrances to Little Mulberry, but I only use the Fence Rd, and the Hog Mountain Rd entrances. Because I live so close to the Fence Rd entrance I didn't realize how big this park is. About 15 miles pf trails. Once I took Hog Mountain Rd is when I realize how pretty it is, and how much stuff there is to do around. There are playgrounds, grills, picnic tables, a fishing lake, lake & lakeviews, and Karina Miller Nature Preserve is also located in the middle of the park and it's so pretty! I love outdoors and having this park so close to me has changed my lifestyle. Definitely visit it if you're in the area! ESPAÑOL Recientemente me mudé a Dacula y ahora este parque está a 5 minutos de mí y me encanta. Hay cuatro entradas a Little Mulberry, pero yo solo uso las entradas Fence Rd y Hog Mountain Rd. Debido a que vivo tan cerca de la entrada de Fence Rd, no me di cuenta de lo grande que es este parque. Cerca de 15 millas de senderos. Una vez que tomé Hog Mountain Rd es cuando me doy cuenta de lo bonito que es y de la cantidad de cosas que hay que hacer. Hay áreas de juegos para niños, parrillas, mesas de pícnic, un lago para pescar, vistas al lago y al lago, y la reserva natural Karina Miller también se encuentra en el medio del parque y es muy bonita. Me encanta el aire libre y tener este parque tan cerca de mí ha cambiado mi estilo de vida. ¡Definitivamente visítalo si estás en la zona!

    Beautiful park. Well kept by the county. Appreciate the hard work and constant attention that is given by the park staff.

    Well, I suppose I've had mixed emotions about the park. I've been a faithful and responsible visitor for many years now. The government shutting things down caused people to flock to the park... effectively ruining the park experience. But, this hasn't been the fault of the people. After all, they most likely pay taxes too. That said, the park is the best around here by far.

    Ordinarily, I'm pretty down on paved hiking trails. But Little Mulberry is such a great park that I can overlook the concrete that comprises most of the length of the prime trail. For some reason, I had trouble finding this place. On the first attempt, I overshot by miles and ended up deciding to visit Ft. Yargo State Park instead. This time I pulled over twice to confirm directions and still overshot. I was determined and made it anyway. I blame my car for not knowing where it was going. This review is for the hiking trails. As this is a multi-use park, it offers plenty of non-hiking stuff, too. There's a lot of open, wide walking paths here - perfect for exercise and casual strolls. Parking in the south lot gives you easy access to the pond loop and the meadow paths. Both are very nice. If you walk up the meadow path clockwise, you'll encounter the trailhead for the ravine trail off to the west. There's an arch marking the entrance. The trail exits back to the meadow path a short ways up from there, also marked by an arch. Under the arch, you'll find a trail map that is a bit out of date. It doesn't show the addition of the woodland trail which loops off the ravine. No matter - the maps at the various trail intersection do show the woodland. As I mentioned, the ravine is mostly concrete - a well constructed, six-foot wide path offering ideal footing. It's a fairly easy hike with some elevation change. Down where the trail follows the ravine itself, the path transitions to a non-paved, but still pretty smooth surface. Not far from the trailhead, do keep an eye out for the large oak tree. Its on the maps but unmarked on the trail. It's an impressive specimen and not hard to pick out. The woodland is a dirt trail that peels off the ravine trail and loops back to join the ravine after a mile or so. Very good hiking here. There's actually a 'shortcut' path some ways along the trail. I wanted tp hike it all, so I took the shortcut, looped back the other way on the main woodland loop and walked the shortcut again. The woodland trail also goes past quite a few of the stacked stone mounds. These are pretty interesting. If you go off-trail to see them up close, I recommend spraying bug repellent on your shoes and lower legs to ward off the chiggers and ticks which lurk in the forest. Take the beech tree path back to the meadow path. It's a bit of work as its uphill. As a bonus, I encountered a box turtle crossing the path that kindly allowed some photography. Back on the meadow path, in the center of the west loop is an 'observation' area. Basically just the high point of the hill with good views. The observation area is in the middle of a large grassy field. Several mown walking paths allow access. You'll find a paved-stone circle with low walls to sit on and a few picnic table in the surrounding field. All very nice. I walked a fair distance around the park on other paths. I do like the general ambiance of the place. Unlike the last Gwinnett County park I visited (Yellow River), Little Mulberry is almost pristine. Very little trash. But to maintain that condition, the county feels it must employ landscapers that are way too liberal with gas-powered blowers. I saw a guy blowing the parking lot even though there was nothing to blow, and he continued along the already clean paths around the pavilion and playground. I understand that blowers ease the job and are therefore cost-effective, but can we all agree that if the area doesn't need to be blown then the workers should refrain from doing so? Those things are irritating and bad for the environment. A final note: I like how the ravine trail intersections have maps. If you have choices on where to go, it helps to have a visual aid. But these maps have a head-shaking flaw. The 'You are here' stickers on each map are laughable - they have no pointers or arrows indicating where you are! The stickers are added to the surface of the maps themselves. Maybe some practical joker removed the arrow stickers?

    Beautiful Scenery! Love bike riding around the lake. Taking in all the sites of the trees, turtles, fish and geese. What more could you ask!

    Lot's of parking and great spot for everyone. We had to park 3 different times until we finally got to the correct picnic pavilion but that was ok. Wear your comfy shoes because this place is huge!

    Has a big lake ! Ducks  and Squirrels

    Amazing park so so beautiful has a lot of trails ! Beautiful lake ... my boys love going there with bikes family and pet friendly!

    Nice scenery. Lots of good views in the park. The trails takes you through the woods and around the lake. There are a couple spots to fish just look for the signs. Benches at every few meters along the trail. Runners, joggers, cyclists, pretty much most aerobic activities like that are good for the trail. Also a few grilling spots for a cook out are located throughout the park. There is a playground as well near the entrance. Restrooms are located at each of the park entrances. This is a really nice park overall. It's well taken care if and is welcoming to everyone for all sorts of activities and occasions.

    My favorite place to take him. Many different areas, trails and entrances so you can always have a new adventure.

    My favorite place to take him. Such an unexpectedly amazing gem when we moved to Buford. Many different areas, trails and entrances so you can always have a new adventure. Absolutely gorgeous and with all the different paths you can gauge your time and difficulty however you please. This place always gives me peace.

    Such a nice park! If you are looking for basketball courts, paved running trails, sand volleyball…read morecourts and more - this is a solid option in the area. It can be a bit confusing to navigate towards the basketball/volleyball court area, as there's a large library (I think?) you pass first to get through. The GPS will correctly lead you to the appropriate area. There is ample parking and restrooms on site at the park near the courts. Everyone was respectful of others sharing the courts, so we all had a great time. Definitely recommend.

The date…read moreand I were amazed and shocked at the size, number of people, and layout of this place when we visited this past Tuesday evening. Even the kid's playground area had fancy equipment I never thought would be in a park. This place is definitely a hangout area for high schoolers. The skating/in-line skating pits, volleyball pit, and basketball courts were filled as if there were tournaments occurring. This area is in a different part of the park and away from the kid's playground. There is another area (football field) that we didn't get to visit, but I can imagine it to be quite large. There was also a large building that seemed like a library filled with children's books, but I'm not too positive what this could be. I believe there are also walking trails and picnic areas as well. Sadly, I don't think there are tennis courts here. :( This park is definitely great for both the young and old. The best part is that this place is very clean and well lit! This definitely warrants more future visits.

    Dacula Park 1/5/2021…read more Pros: spacious, great for baseball Cons: unmarked trail Located across the street from Dacula High School, Dacula Park provides a great outdoor space for sporting activities, mainly, baseball. The park has several outdoor baseball fields and batting cages. On the positive side the park appears to be family friendly. It has a swimming pool, pavilions, a playground and "pond" with geese. The park also has a paved walking trail, which brings me to my negatives about this park. The website states that the trail is 1.75 miles, however there are no mile markers or clear signage as to where the trail begins and ends ( which on my first go around made me uneasy, because I was unsure where I was going and the path splits off several times along the trail). Depending on which path you take the trail can be much shorter than expected, or can lead to dead ends and/or the parking lot. Part of the paved path takes you to a more wooded area located behind the baseball fields. Depending on your direction, you will pass on oddly place stone configuration, a small bridge, and an area currently under construction for a community garden. For dog owners I believe there are better trails in Gwinnett for dogs, which would provide more open grassy areas for pets the run and play. Overall, I think after you have explored the trail at least once and get a sense of where you're going it's a nice easy trail to walk or run.
