This greenspace is in addition to those featured in Hiking Atlanta’s Hidden Forests.

Description: This is one of the true hidden forests in Atlanta. Over the span of several visits, I have still never seen another hiker on the trails in this park. Yet this greenspace that used to be a Boy Scout camp boasts beautiful forests, interesting elevation change, a meandering creek, and a really excellent playground. Park on Collins Road and hike up the ridge to the now-closed Spink Road and back.
