Overall rating: 5 Scenic rating: 4 Difficulty rating: 4 As an amature photographer, I was able to get quite a few good pictures of the trail and the mill ruins. Unfortunately, the markers describing the area have been damaged.

Overall rating: 2 Scenic rating: 2 Difficulty rating: 2 Hiked 4/12/09. It is certainly nice to have access to a wooded trail so close to a populated area, but this trail system is too crowded and not particularly pretty. I find the man made waterfall and the sewer system pipes depressing. OK for a nice stroll after a meal. Better than nothing, but not much more.

Overall rating: 5 Scenic rating: 4 Difficulty rating: 3 I really enjoyed the scenery. I went on a "Group Hike" with my Church group. Beautiful, in parts a little slippery on the bigger leaves. And in parts more incline and some branchy and rocky paths that were tricky - we kept a good fast pace. Use caution for steel rods (unmarked) coming out of the ground mid-hike on the trail. They really should mark those with red plastic ties to be seen better. I enjoyed it VERY much and will return again and again. I highly recommend this Trail. If you keep a good "pace" - you will feel a "good healthy workout"! And the scenery is better than most of the Chattachoochee Trails I typically hike on a usual basis.
