A group of 5 us headed out into the woods of West Palisades. Trail markers at all the junctions. We did about 8 miles wondering around all the trails. Some trails are by the river, but when you turn inland it is hilly. This area also connects to paved trail along Rottenwood Creek, but the wooded trails are more interesting. Everyone enjoyed our time. Bathrooms are available here near the parking lot. Well worth a stop. Enjoy the outdoors!

The larger park has higher play equipment, climbing walls, slides, big kid swings, etc along with things for small children. There are more kids at this part of the park so we do walk over for a few minutes to people watch but since I dont have a walker we really dont spend much time here yet.

In fact if you're driving Hahn woods is a good place to park as parking is not great anywhere around Lullwater.

This state park was a great find and only a 30 min drive from mid town. They had different trails for different levels of hiking. Our trail ran alongside the creek and we got to dip our legs in the water while others were swimming and tanning. If we weren't so tired we would have made a whole day of it!

I made the suggestion to walk the trail instead of just walking around the neighborhood. Best decision ever! We started the trail at the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area at Paces Mills. The trail length is 3.8 miles and offers a great work out. The terrain varies from flat to slightly inclined. In addition to getting that heart rate up you get to experience what feels like the perfect place to unwind and unplug. It's the sounds and sights for me! The waves created in the Chattahoochee river, the sounds of birds chirping, the sight of plush tees, and bridges. It truly is a natural escape from a busy suburban lifestyle. A few things to note: 1. You can access this trail from two different parking areas. The lot on Interstate North Parkway is free of charge. However, it is a small lot. The larger Lot at Paces Mill is $5.00 per day. You can make the payment via an app. 2. this is a multi- use trail. As such, you can find people doing a leisure walk, jogging, biking, skating etc. motorized items are not permitted on the trail. 3. if you don't own a bike, there are rentals available. The company that is located at this trail is called Movatics. You can find them in your App Store to get started with your rental. The advertisement notes that it is free for your first hour and $3.00 per hour after that. 4. The park is open from dusk to dawn just like most trails and parks. I highly recommend stopping by this trail, it will not disappoint!

You can access the lot from either direction on Hwy 41. You first need to pay the $5 parking fee to recreation.gov. The instructions are fairly easy to follow; the whole transaction is done via smartphone. It probably took 5 minutes or less. The paved trail heads east along the river and crosses under I-75 before turning north. The trail is well shaded for much of the way, though it gets sunny as it ascends a significant hill just before the 1-mile mark. That was about as far as we went on our initial visit, though the trail kept going for, I think, at least another mile. There are nice views of the creek as well as (early) of the river. When we went, there were a fair number of others walking or running, so it never seemed too isolated.

I can't remember all that well) but we mainly used a part of the parking lot and the covered area up by the playground. The parking area is large enough for the park (it's not a giant park) and everything was very clean, lots of garbage bins sprinkled around. The playground had ample space and play options (playset, swings, etc.) and I even saw doggie doo stands with bags and garbage bins for your pets on the paved walkway. They had a small restroom building with sides for men and women. They were alright for park bathrooms, but there was no mirror in the womens room which seemed a little important?? Overall this was a nice park. Probably not one I would go out of my way to visit but if you're in the area and would like a small picnic or a place to take the kiddos, this would be a good option!
