Confirmed from Tucker Nature Preserve'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.
Wooded preserve featuring a half-mile walking loop and picnic tables in a tranquil setting.
What runners say about Tucker Nature Preserve
“Beautiful nature space we attended an apiary event here this weekend.”
“A quiet sliver of forest amid the noisy, busy streets of Tucker.”
This is a wonderful short hike through the woods. I didn't know I had this gem right around the corner from me. It's not fancy, but it's relaxing and beautiful. It's about a half mile walking trail with some beautiful trees!
Nice, short hike through the woods! The Friends group overseeing the park has posted interesting videos about sections of the trail, and you can scan QR codes on posts throughout to learn more.
A quiet sliver of forest amid the noisy, busy streets of Tucker. A half mile mulched trail loops around the gently sloped landscape. Sturdy benches along the trail and picnic tables closer to the entrance. Small parking lot for about 7 vehicles.
The parking lot has a total of about 7 spaces. There are benches just outside the parking area where you can sit and rest. As you walk further through the entrance, you’ll see two paths, as noted in my photo. • Path 1: Leads to the bee-keeping area.
