Description
This hike takes you by a little hidden gem of a forested area with a babbling creek with bridge crossing, then around behind the back of the Atlanta Botanical Gardens, past the dog park, and around the Piedmont Park "meadow". This hike offers some lovely views out over the park and towards part of the ATL skyline as well. Lots of great places to stop for a picnic here!
