Lionel Hampton-Beecher Hills Park - Park in Atlanta - SW Connector Trail, USA

I recently visited Lionel Hampton-Beecher Hills Park and had a great time. The park is well-maintained and offers a variety of amenities for visitors to enjoy. I particularly liked the walking trails, which are perfect for a leisurely stroll or a brisk workout. The playground and picnic areas are also great for families with children. The park is situated in a beautiful location, with plenty of trees and greenery, which adds to the overall ambiance. The staff were friendly and helpful, and they made sure that the park was clean and safe. Overall, I highly recommend a visit to Lionel Hampton-Beecher Hills Park for anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable outdoor experience in the Atlanta area.

Great place to take a nice brisk walk. It's very serene and calming. I did not see a lot of people out 6 it could be due to the weather. Great walking/biking trail!!

Lionel Hampton Park is a nice patch of “wild space” sandwiched between developed residential areas. The park is defined by two paved paths that run north-south and east-west for just under a mile each way and intersect in the middle of the park. There isn’t any kind of developed entry location with lavatories or parking. The northern entrance off Willis Mills Road does have a play area and stops for working out, but all the entry points are located in the surrounding local neighborhoods where visitors must park on residential streets. The layout prevents you from following any kind of circular route, so visitors will need to retrace their steps when leaving or extending their stay. But what the park lacks in convenience is made up for by its pleasant scenery and quiet, uncrowded location. It’s definitely worth a visit and a nice place for a walk or run. It’s also a nice thoroughfare for cyclists, even if it is too short for anything but a pass-through destination on a much longer ride.

Beautiful nature preserve. Enjoyed a great hike through unspoiled forests. I felt like I was in the north georgia mountains, but only minutes from home. I saw deer and hawks and hiked to a beautiful pond with ducks, geese and heron. Great getaway to enjoy nature.

This trail really nice. It is well paced and well kept with nice coverage from the trees making it cool. There are creeks and bridges and entering points from the neighborhoods surrounding the trail. There is also a nice park and an outdoor workout area. Note: - There doesn’t seem to be an specific parking area, but on street parking in the neighborhoods abutting the trailheads. - It’s a pretty hilly trail as well. Feedback: - The sitting bikes that are a part of the workout out area are each missing a pedal.

This one of the most beautiful trails thats under utilized by the public. Its surrounded by tree's and nature. We like to walk with a stick or pepper spray because once saw stray dogs and owners sometimes let their dogs off their leashe. I have found edible plants on the trail. I highly recommend this trail.

I'm in love with these trails! Mostly paved for pedestrians and cyclists. One wooded unpaved trail. Lovely forest. Peaceful. Went to get some exercise the past several rainy mornings. Found wild strawberries, Turkey tail mushrooms, saw tons of birds, a couple deer, a turtle, and heard a barred owl calling out "who cooks for you, who cooks for you-all?"

In the morning, around 8:00am, this hike is a quiet sanctuary with a small creek nearby. I've seen 4 of these box turtles in just 2 trips, plus a doe. There's more concrete path that I haven't traversed yet, but I bet there are great some mileage and hills here for runners. I park on the side of the road by Beecher Hills school.
