What a beautiful park! We are new to the area and one of our neighbors recommended we visit this park. We had such a great time walking around and we even brought lunch and had a picnic near the Chattahoochee River. We watched people tube and kayak down the river and saw some beautiful wildlife. We also walked on the trail and enjoyed that very much too. We look forward to our next visit.

My husband and I are new to the area and enjoy exploring the many parks we are lucky to have. Our neighbor recommended this park and I am really glad he did. We went on a Sunday, so it was pretty busy. We were lucky enough to find parking in one of the lots, but it took awhile. We packed a picnic and wanted to find a place away from others. We did find a place not far from the river and tucked behind a building so it was perfect. We really enjoy our picnic and then we decided to take a walk and really enjoyed the walking area at the park as well. It was fun to see people kayaking and tubing down the river. We will definitely visit this park again, it was a wonderful day.

From Azalea park, you can pick up the Riverwalk Trail that connects to the Chattahoochee Nature Center. It’s a peaceful spot to enjoy walking, running or biking along the river. I have spotted herons, egrets, hawks and turtles. There is a playground at the park and you can rent canoes or kayaks to paddle down the river.

My wife and I visited Azalea Park on Tuesday for the first time. Located at 203 Azalea Drive this community park is located directly on the Chattahoochee River. We went early and got our walking in before 10am. It was a beautiful sunny day and this was a great spot to have a picnic lunch. We spent the afternoon relaxing, people watching and hanging out with the many geese by the river.

It was nuts because we'd had so much rain and this area is very flooded (and supposedly some from water let out by Buford Dam area.) So the parking lot was 1/2 flooded. But still enough free parking and open bathrooms. You just had to be creative on where to walk around to see the trail. (One bench by the water was still half under water.) But still pretty even in Feb.
