Vineyard Mountain/Allatoona Dam from Riverside Park 5.3 Miles

Enjoy late Spring views as we walk lakeside up to the Allatoona Dam overlook from Riverside Park. We'll descend up and down Vineyard Mountain along the shores of the Allatoona Lakes. The trek has a combination of terrains and is considered moderately challenging, taking about 2-2.5 hours.

My hiking style is slow and steady, taking periodic breaks and enjoying our surroundings. We'll meet at Riverside Day Use Park at the third parking lot on the left before setting off for the Vineyard Trail/Allatoona Dam Overlook Trailhead for this out-and-back trail. Bring plenty of water and snacks. Small parts of this trail are exploratory for host. If it's warm, bring a bathing suit to dunk in water. Option to eat after for anyone interested.
