Little Mulberry Park, Dacula, Ga.

Given how annoying Atlanta traffic can be, I’m very happy to live close-in. But one thing I am very envious of when it comes to the outer suburbs is Gwinnett County’s excellent network of parks and green space. Little Mulberry is a good example, a beautiful little lake surrounded by a paved trail with plenty of dirt offshoots running in every directions. We caught it a bit too late for Fall leaves, which were likely spectacular only a few days or weeks ago, but was a nice, relaxing few miles on a Fall Sunday.

 

Cane Creek Falls

Only open to the public at certain points in the year, because the falls sit inside private property just outside the (very charming college) town Dahlonega, Ga.. The hike is nonexistent, just a few steps from the parking lot, but the falls are majestic and worth seeing if in the area.

Through most of the summer the falls are part of a summer camp. Imagine the fun the kids have swimming and playing around there.
