Years ago, the Silver Comet Rail Line took passengers back and forth between Atlanta and Birmingham, Alabama. Now, however, the abandoned line has carried passengers only on foot or on bicycle. This paved trail runs for 13 miles (21 kilometers) through Cobb County and continues into Paulding and Polk Counties. When completed, the trail will extend the entire length of the Atlanta-Birmingham line. Pets are allowed if leashed. You can access this scenic trail at multiple locations; just call for directions.
Brinkley Park
Covering a total of 10-acres (4.04 hectares), Taylor-Brawner Park is situated not so far away from the Poplar Creek. During your visit to this serene park, you will find children having a blast at the playground, students studying under the shade of a tree, fitness enthusiasts working out and families picnicking. Taylor-Brawner Park is also home to Brawner Hall and Taylor-Brawner House, two historic buildings that serve as event facilities apart from an amphitheater, paved walking trails and gazebos. Visiting this park is bound to be fun no matter what your age.
