 This nature area is a 70-acre public preserve along Line Creek off Hwy 54 on the Fayette/Coweta County line. This popular Nature Area offers a mix of habitats - an upland hardwood forest, granite outcroppings, and a rushing stream bordered by native azaleas. Visitors will enjoy a fishing dock on a small pond, a gazebo and several miles of nature trails. From the parking lot there’s easy access to a picnic area next to a fishing pond with a gazebo and pier. The Council Circle is great for birthday parties and Scout meetings. Just beyond the pond two trails offer a quick escape to nature. To the right, the easy Ridge Trail leads you through a peaceful hardwood forest and then along the creek. The Creek Trail to the left requires more sure footing, taking you down a slope and across granite outcroppings with unique xeric vegetation. Enjoy the native azaleas blooming in the spring. The reward is a scenic perch beside rushing Line Creek. Be careful- the rock can be slippery! |
