    I spy with my blue eyes, slides & swings, just my size.

    What a great park w/ lots of covered areas, and a playground safe and appropriate for da wee ones (love that squishy gym-floor-like ground.) Bright, colorful and engaging equipment - a pavillion, restrooms ... not to mention the adjacent library, basketball courts, and skate park. Parking access is convenient, and when we grew weary of playing, there was plenty of retail/restaurant options right around the corner.

    Enter here to get to football field with .4 mile track

    I was disappointed with Duncan Creek Park only because of its lack of a walking trail. The park does have a .4 mile track around the football field towards the back of the park. The park covers a good amount of land, adding a trail would definitely increase this parks appeal. Besides of that... the park is good for sports and to bring your kids. It has a good size playground towards the front of the park.

The Glühwein and Gourmet Trail: The food and drink lineup is robust! You can't miss the authentic German flavors: Bratwurst, Schnitzel, Raclette, pretzels, chimney cakes, and, of course, the signature Glühwein (hot mulled wine) served in collectible souvenir mugs. A Festive View: Take a ride on the impressive 50-foot Ferris Wheel for a sparkling, panoramic view of the market and the surrounding holiday lights! Full Entertainment Schedule: Enjoy the sounds of the season with live performances from local choirs, German bands, and cultural groups right on the Lawrenceville Lawn stage.

    Sometimes, actually most times, I use hiking as a way to be alone with my thoughts. To contemplate…read moreand reflect on life and decisions (past, present & future). It's also a great time to pray for my family, friends and the world at large... and simply give thanks for the blessings I sometimes take for granted. I LOVE group hikes, but I cherish deeply the alone value of a solo hike. [ TODAY'S TRAIL ENCOUNTER ] God made me adventurous, there is no doubt about that. The thought of exploring someplace new brings so much excitement and anticipation that I literally tingle inside. So today when I decided to hike a 1.5 mile section of the equestrian trail that I've never taken, even I was surprised at just how eager I was to walk it. I've hiked almost every non-biking trail in this park, but for some reason I've never stepped foot on this segment. Would it be difficult? Would it look different than other parts of the trail? How long before I connect to a section I recognize? And my most dominant thought: Will I meet any horses along the way? I've logged dozens and dozens of hikes here @ Harbins park and not once have I ever met a horse on the trail itself. I find it rather ironic that I get so very excited about the unknown of new hiking trails and vacation destinations, but get so worried over life and its unknowns, especially when it takes unexpected turns. I pondered this clash in thinking as I walked and prayed, asking for guidance and courage for life's challenges. As if on cue, I rounded a section of the trail only to see a deer sitting in wait along the trail. I've never seen a deer just chillaxing like that ever with its legs folded below its body (just like my cat sitting on her favorite ottoman peering out the window). I was thrilled, but I couldn't get my camera out fast enough to capture the image before it stood and ran off into the woods. While I would come to encounter about a half dozen more deer during my short walk, I kept hoping to see a horse. I figured the chances were extremely low since my hike would be shorter than normal (3 miles instead of 9) and I'd never seen one here on the trails before. There is a point on the equestrian trail where you can either continue or taken an emergency exit trail that bypasses nearly 3.5 miles of the main trail. Since I'd just hiked 8 miles the day before, I decided to take the shortcut and give my old legs a rest. But as good fortune would have it, I discovered two riders walking their horses on this side trail. I couldn't believe my eyes!! How odd that I would get my wish on a shortcut route I generally never use. What was even more interesting is I knew one of the riders from church. I've invited her & her family many times to join one of the OFF-THE-GRID yelp hikes that I host monthly. As we talked, I shared the date of the next upcoming hike and wouldn't you know it, she is free! God works in mysterious ways indeed! [ AMENITIES ] What an amazing park!!! * Harbins Park is the largest Gwinnett County park @ 1,960 acres * Trails include a 4.3-mile paved multi-purpose trail, 7-mile equestrian trail, 13-mile mountain biking trail and 4.5-mile hiking trail. * Several playground, picnic pavilions, grills, restrooms, and parking areas including an equestrian trailer parking. * The Football Complex has a lighted walking track, dog park, lake, and 1.5-mile paved trail. * The Baseball Complex includes seven baseball/softball fields, restrooms, concessions, and a LARGE parking area. * The main park also has a water pump in the parking area to rinse trail mud off your mountain bike. * Believe it or not, the public restrooms are generally clean, stocked and SMELL GOOD!!! [ FINAL THOUGHTS ] I ponder a great many things, wishing for answers and hoping for wisdom to better manage life's complexities. Like most people, when it comes to life I just want to know where it's going. Funny how something as simple as a hike can reveal small truths. Truths like how you may never know the twists and turns of your trails, or be able to control the ups & downs of your journey; But if you keep pressing forward with good thoughts, excitement and openness to possibilities, God will surely give you wonders and delights along the way to encourage you. 2019/118

    The Bad thing that makes me grade this park so low: My kids now call it the Stranger Danger Park…read more The lack of police presence worries me. This is a big park that is busy with all ages. When we arrived there was a red van with all the window shades red with an old grey haired man driving. He park 4 space across from us facing the playground. I noticed another man just sitting on one of the benches nicely dressed on his phone right by the playground watching the kids play. The man sitting got up after he noticed I saws starring at him, we went to a blacked out Audi that was facing the playground. He sat in his car, watching the playground and talking on his phone. The gentleman in the red van at that time backed out of his parking spot that he was in and moved to the opposite side of the parking lot. He was not facing the playground, but I noticed he was watching his rearview mirrors. I notified my brother who was with us and he went by the red van in the gentleman, and the van followed him. The gentleman and the black out, Audi backed out and left the park . The gentleman in the red van then moved to another parking spot between two vehicles face the playground again. My brother and I decided to leave with the kids. after we got the kids in the car seats my brother went to inform parents on the play about what we have been watching. The mother with 3 young girls had my brother walk with her to her vehicle that was two spaces from the red van. I watched the man in the red van watching me and others in the playground. When my brother got in the vehicle to leave the red van moved again. This time he got out the van walked around to the passenger side and opened the sliding door. As he was getting back in his drivers seat he starred us down. I decided to go to the restroom s and call the police. As I was on the phone and lady over heard me talking to the 911 operator, she stop and questioned me. She got worried because the red van was parked next to her vehicle and she had two kids. My brother offered to bring her and the kids to her vehicle, but the kids were still at practice. We decided to move closer to the gates so we could watch for the police and watch to see if the van lift the park. As we were sitting in the vehicle waiting on the police we noticed the man in the Audi was back in the park. We waited for 32 minutes and decided to just leave the kid were not feeling to good, the heat and spinning. I don't know what happened after we left, never received a call back from the police. I did see the lady waiting for her kids was telling all the parents around her and entering the park. She was not getting in her vehicle until the police arrived. The Good: The kids loved the playground and all they could play on. We even got some National Geographic Books for kids.
