  • We live in the Auburn/Opelika area and these are great trails within 45 minutes of our house. The Deadening Trail is our favorite ... I would rate it as moderate as it has some climbing on the side...

  • By mistake we wound up following the pink marks on the trail which was the trail that hugged the cliffs, many switchbacks, steep and about 4.2 miles for the whole trek. We passed the fire tower but.....  more

  • This is not a lake you can see much of as almost all views are blocked of it when driving in the area. You have to have a house on the lake, have a boat, or do a trail like this one to see much of...

  • This is one of the most perfect places to propose to your partner, if that's what you're planning to do here. The view from the overlook is excellent and the plaques have great information on them. The trail is perfectly natural and almost 100% trash-free. The volunteers that maintain this natural beauty are absolutely wonderful. However, try to avoid the massive banana spiders all over the further parts of the trails! Other than those monsters, this place is a 10/10!
  • I highly recommend hiking here. Hiking by lake Martin and climbing the rocks along the way is an awesome experience. Can't wait to go back.
  • Love the view and the trails are clean, spacious and easy to walk. We just wish their were grills so we could come grill and pick nic.
  • It's a good spot to host a BBQ, birthday or any picnic. Trails are easy comparative and the view of the lake is amazing. You can go to take a good swim on a summer morning or camp there along the lake side. Good trail of you're planning to bring your dog along as there are hardly any animals around.
  • Beautiful place, the Cherokee Alpine trail was amazing but could be very steep and slippery in parts. You will walk all the way down to the lake and back up so be prepared. There is an easier trail for families. Overall this is worth a day trip and is a hidden gem.
