Matt Park Trail is a loop trail that takes you through a nice forest with creek and pond and pretty meadows located near Cumming, Georgia. Distance is 3-ish miles with an overall Elevation Gain of 259 ft.
This trail is great for hiking, mountain biking, and running, and it's unlikely you'll encounter many other people while exploring. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime. Dogs are welcome, but must be on a leash.
Lots of tree piles on the sides but a pretty clear narrow dirt path throughout. Moderate walk, uneven surface with chances of mud after/during rain so bring appropriate shoes. Not very populated at all.
Waterfowl and deer are often spotted here.
\*There is ample parking and several nice restrooms located in this city park.
\*Well-behaved dogs are welcome on this hike! Be sure your pooch is leashed at all times (6 ft. non-retractable leashes, please) and that we practice Leave No Trace with our fur babies, too, cleaning up after them.
\*As always, dress in non-cotton layers, dressing for the weather. Wear sturdy shoes...shoes with good gripping soles! If it has rained recently the boardwalk might be somewhat slick, so non-skid soles are important. Poles are not required but can be used if desired
**\*Bring along:** water, snacks, possibly a rain jacket or poncho.

\*\*\* If there is interest, we can meet for lunch afterwards. *More info on that to follow.*
\*\*\* If the hike is cancelled due to inclement weather, we will notify everyone by 7:00PM the night before the hike and reschedule as soon as possible.
