The South Peachtree Creek Trail is a short greenway linking two recreational amenities in DeKalb County. On the east end, Medlock Park features baseball and softball diamonds, tennis courts, a playground, pool and open space. In the west, Mason Mill Park offers a tennis center, recreation center and picnic area on the site of the former Decatur Waterworks. The boardwalk trail between the parks winds through woodlands behind suburban homes.
Parking for the South Peachtree Creek Trail is available at Medlock Park on Scott Circle and Mason Mill Park on McConnell Drive.
I absolutely adore this trail. I love how you feel like you're right in the middle of nature, but without all the bugs n such because the trail is paved. My favorite part of the trail is the graffiti. It's absolutely gorgeous and I'm happy the powers that be leave the artwork there for all to admire. my second fave part of the trail is the boardwalk above the train tracks. Stunning view. Also, the sound of the creek is quite peaceful. They are constantly enlarging the trail so have fun and explore! Also, watch out for the off-beaten trails (primarily for bikers and hikers), there's poison ivy in the bushes.
By day, seemed clean enough and void of dangerous debris. If abundant graffiti on signs, walls, and bridges indicates late night activity, local law enforcement may stay busier with this trail.
This trail does not have any events yet.
