"A peaceful concrete trail that runs around a section of Chastain Golf Course. Most people are walking or jogging on this trail so I would discourage bike riders from coming here. I felt extremely safe since I was walking during the day on a Sunday."

"Short walk(around .4 of a mile), but really nice. The trail is a fitness walk, so there is equipment and directions for activities all along the well maintained graveled walkway. For those less athletic, there are lots of benches along the way. The entire trail is shaded, so it's a good choice for a hot day. Overall, this is a lovely little walk."
