Pretty view when you make it to the top. But the trails turn into roads and you have to watch for vehicles. **edit if you want a real hike and not have to walk the road take the red trail not green.

I liked the trail overall but there seems to be confusion on the trail colors as maps are red/green the opposite of the trail themselves. The green section is pretty easy with a slight uphill. The red section is a little more technical with more ups and downs, more sloped areas, etc. The view of the dam is good from both above and below (pic from below)

This is history hidden in our back yard. The old Coopers Iron Works are impressive. Plus the old rail bed that passed through the present Lake Allatoona. Imaging creating all this with horse, mule and muscle.

Nice walk along the road. But the longer nature trail up the side of the mountain requires a bit of maintenance as they are downed trees and paths are not clearly marked.

A bit of washout but woodsy and great history. Make sure you go to top of hill by visitors center to view dam and Etowah River. Nice picnic spot there.

Great Rustic walk!

How can you give Gods creation any less than five stars? We walked from Coopers furnace to the top of Pine Mountain. It was a really tough hike. It was 5.4 miles up and back which doesnt sound like much. But it is a rather steep climb at points.

No trash on trail

Beautiful and easily accessible. Very quiet and easy access to the lake. Picnic area with a pavilion. Great for family or office get togethers.

I went to my great grandsons birthday party here

Spent the day geocaching. Its nice and clean. Very peaceful

Love the trails and you can barbeque.

We managed to walk from trailhead to the furnace with two toddlers with light rain and it was tons of fun. There are a few cool little Bridges that our boys took interest to and it was overall very peaceful.

Easy hike lots of scenery

Nature trails to the top of the Dam, picnic tables with power and grills, open area for family fun.

Nice view from the top

This is a nice place to go plenty of shade. The picnic tables and grills are in good shape. The only draw back was getting in the water a lot of rocks on shoreline. Wasnt happy with jet skis not obeying no wake zone. Have to overlook things I recon.

Loved this trail! Great quick hike and love the view! Cant believe this is so close to Atlanta!

Awesome hike! Stream crossings, foot bridges, some flat and wide portions some narrow and steep. Over look plat forms. Great place.

Historic place, was the village known as Ettowah, had Iron furnace, mini mining railroad which is now a hiking trail, connects to many other trails , has bathroom, picnic area, game areas, is alongside Ettowah River..

I have walked this trail many times. I always like stopping off at the lake office and sitting in a rocking chair. The dam overlook is nice as well.

The hiking trails are the best, make sure to have your hiking boots, snacks and extra water.....your adventure will take you all over....Pine Mountain connections is the white trail ...the overlook is the blue and red...,

Grew up here, my daddy worked at new River side ochre for over 30yrs. This is where all my childhood memories are and still this place. My son and my grandbabies come here!!

Great trail for a quick hike and stunning views of the lake and dam.

It was great

This is a nice place to go for some quick hiking. There are some skinny trails, and there are also some of the wider trails that have gravel and what not. Decently hilly, but nothing extreme by far. I just did the two small loops on the Southwest corner, and I only passed one other person the whole time. Im planning on going back and connecting with the Pine Mountain portion. I wouldnt wear flat soled shoes, or sandals - but otherwise this is a novice hike. There are very clean bathrooms and picnic areas by the parking lot on the Southwest corner of this hike.

Easy to launch a kayak but a few boaters in the water have no respect for kayakers. Nice views but the 3 hours of a running leaf blower in the park kind of took the serenity out of the morning. Ill go back but for any newbies out there just beware. There are some rude people out there

Nice connecting trail to other trails. Really nice for hiking and Running. Never too crowded.

One of my favorite trails to go with the dog, spacious and not difficult

Great views. Rugged trail! Loved it?

I felt very connected to nature. It was wonderful!!!

Nice park grills and trail views

Beautiful part of Lake Allatoona COE

Beautiful views from the lake!

Great place to walk

Pretty good stuff.

Super cool place

The trail is not much used, and not well marked. Its a good option to add more mileage if youre hiking the adjacent Pine Mountain trails, but, not much to attract anyone otherwise.

Enjoyed the trails here, lots of up and down but not too difficult.

Very well maintained and marked trails. Can be overcrowded on nice weekends.

Love this lake such a relaxing place

Great time
