    You can find Yahoola Creek Park at 464 Mechanicsville Rd Dahlonega, GA 30533 - this is on the…read moredownward east slope from downtown Dahlonega and about a mile from campus. You could probably walk it but the elevation change might be extreme for those that aren't fit. There's parking at the main trail entrance and a small parking pull-off west on Mechanicsville Dr. I had no issues parking at the main lot which also has public restrooms. I traveled to Dahlonega for a wedding held at Wolf Mountain Vineyards and decided to leave early and get my bearings (also check in at the local IHG/Holiday Inn Express and get cleaned up). This hike was right up my ally - close to the Hotel, about 3 miles and not too strenuous. It's mapped as: Yahoola Creek Reservoir Trail" - facing the main parking lot it's North - to the left side with the restrooms to the South side. It's marked on maps as the "red trail" at 3.1 miles. The trail starts with a gravel path until you get around the low areas then climbs upward under a leafy canopy moving clockwise around the lake. You get the typical elevation changes as you move through small hollars, then a ridgeline (you can see the lake through the trees) continuing around until you get to the mouth of the creek (lowest point) - there's a swing that probably gave you a great view before all the Kudzu took over. Moving around you get back to another low area where you can get down to the water for a view, before coming onto the dam (you walk across it) and back to the parking area. There's an optional blue trail that adds 1.7 miles that I would have taken if I had more time. In all, quite a lovely hike with only a couple of elevation points that some might find strenuous but no hard rocks/boulders to overcome. Those in Dahlonega are very lucky to have this resource - I'll be exploring the other trails the next time I'm in the area.

    Fantastic fun outside with lots of space to run and be free. Fun playgrounds and splash pad during…read morethe summer or just play in the creek. One of our favorite spots!
