Confirmed from Simpsonwood Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
223-acre park offering a campground, BBQ grills, forest trails & a small chapel with a gazebo.
What runners say about Simpsonwood Park
“Huge beautiful park by the side of Chattahoochee River with a walking trail all along the river , Saw some Deer roaming here and there, had a enjoyable walk there.”
I love to walk through the wooded trails and see all of my sweet deer friends. The deer aren't too wary of humans, and sometimes they're even a little bit curious and will occasionally approach you slowly, allowing you to take decent photos of them. I took this photo with my phone, btw.

I loved it. Nice walking place. Must go place. Give yourself a favor and just go for walk. You will love it. Your dogs are going to love it too. Nature is calling. Get it...
Quite place to hike. Trail is marked in many places but with all the blow downs there are lots of detours and the trail has not been maintained so it can be easy to get off track. Fortunately it is not a large place so hard to get really lost.
