While there are many trails I dream about traveling too the one I visit most often is the one closest to home, Line Creek. The Line Creek Nature Area is a 70-acre public preserve along the eastern side of Line Creek. The creek forms the border between Peachtree City and Coweta County. There are two main trails, the Ridge Trail(0.8 miles) and the Creek Trail(1.2 miles). The preserve also has a small pond, dock and council circle(similar to a amphitheater)
The thing I like most about Line Creek is that it feels so out of place in Peachtree City. No paved golf cart path, just dirt, rock and roots. As you leave the parking area heading towards the creek the sound of cars on 54 begin to drown out. Walking along the trail you can almost forget that you are in Peachtree City and begin to imagine you are in North Georgia. Although a few times you can see homes from Planterra Ridge and that spoils the illusion a little.
I had the opportunity to go for a short walk one morning before work and enjoy some freshly fallen snow. It was the perfect way to start the day, enjoy the photos!
