Top Parks in Atlanta

I suggest bringing your own water bottle and refilling it; there's a water fountain not too far from the entrance, which really helps keep costs low when you're thirsty.

If you're driving, arrive before 10 AM on weekends to snag a parking spot. After that, it's a total hustle!

I recommend visiting the park early in the morning, around 8 AM, to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere before the crowds show up. It felt like I had the place to myself for a bit!

Bring some snacks or a picnic. There are plenty of spots to relax and enjoy your food, plus it’ll save you some cash instead of eating out.

I suggest exploring the little trails that branch off. They’re not super well marked, but I found some really pretty spots that weren’t crowded at all. Worth the adventure!
