Allatoona Creek Park
Details
With nine separate trail systems totaling over 30 miles, two of which have views of Allatoona Lake, this is a varied and interesting park.
About The Hike:
Distance: ~ eight miles
Time: ~ 3 1/2 hours
Skill Rating: Moderate
Pace = 3 - 3½ miles per hour; intermediate to advanced hikers only please
Special Equipment = None needed, though walking poles might help
Food: As usual, we'll do a five-minute stop to grab something to eat, so please bring water and lunch/snacks
Kids/Pets = No pets please, but children that can keep the posted pace are encouraged to attend
Meeting Times/Directions:
The trailhead is located off of Old Stilesboro Road, which is about ten minutes north of Kennesaw Mountain. There are multiple ways to get there, though I find taking the 75 route the fastest. There is a huge parking lot, so no problem parking. Please meet near the picnic benches.
And don't forget: We'll go to a restaurant or brewery after the hike, usually Marlowes for this location.
See you on the trail!
