There's this park down the road from me, a ways, maybe in Lithia Springs, or maybe just in Austell, called Suggs Park. From the road, it had that "I've got secret trails" look to it. I always wanted to go over there and check it out, so this past June, I finally did.
And, yep, just as I thought! Secret trails, everywhere.
Unfortuantely, they weren't recreational trails, per-se. I mean, there was an actual loop trail out there, and a few gravel roads that cross cut the property, but the trails all led to either homeless camps, in some cases over very sketchy bridges...
...or just into the middle of a swamp.
There were trails down the road, and across the street, and through a cemetery, and behind some buildings, but they all led to the woods along Sweetwater Creek, and they all led to homeless camps, in various states of use, disrepair, and abandon.
It's generally fun exploring, but that particular exploration was net depressing.
