It was great weather so lots of people with dogs just lounging around enjoying their time. Great for people watching and just being in the city.

My son and I parked and walked around near dusk, getting in a good bit of exercise and marveling at how beautiful the park must be when everything is green. We loved walking around the lake and the swimming pool area too. How fortunate we are to have this park in the city!Visited December 2023Travelled with familyWritten 28 December 2023

Piedmont Park is a great place for picnics, leisurely walks, or just relaxing in its green spaces. The views of the Atlanta skyline give it a cool city-meets-nature vibe. Well-kept paths and gardens with lots of different plants make the whole park look really pretty 😍

There is so much open space to roam. It’s so beautiful when the trees are blooming. A nice pet friendly park in a lively city.

My daughter, wife and I were visiting Atlanta for the Thanksgiving holiday and decided we needed some exercise. Piedmont Park was a short walk from our hotel, so we spent about 1.5 hours walking around. I liked walking around the pond, and watching people playing volleyball, and there were plenty of paths to choose from. A little more green would have been nice, but at the end of a dry November, browned grass was to be expected.
All in all, this was a pleasant way to spend some time on a holiday morning.

Beautiful Park. Whether you want a romantic picnic or take a quick walk around the trail, there's so much to do. Also, there are restaurants close by. The botanical garden is close by so prob a good place to visit in the same trip as well!

I was there in November so I do not know if they are closed due to the Covid situation. I would recommend checking the Atlanta Parks website.

Is there any free parking at/near the park? We are going to visit on a weekday, after the Magnolia festival is over so hoping we can park close for a short walk/visit. Good location for metered or lot parking if nothing free is available? Thank you

On weekday you should not have any problem finding street parking on the neighborhood streets around the park. Street along Monroe near 10th St probably the easiest and most accessible to the park and Beltline. If all else fails, the parking garage in the botanical gardens is directly connected to the park. The Garden is closed on Mondays in case you want to visit.

Which hotel allowed you to borrow bikes? Any suggestion about the biking trails in Atlanta? I usually can do about 25 miles. My husband can ride forever. Any nice scenic routes?Any information is deeply appreciated.

Hi! There are several good biking trails. The Silver Comet Trail in Smyrna is a great one that goes all the way to Alabama! The Big Creek Greenway in Alpharetta has a nice trail as well. Those are the two I would recommend!
Are there picnic tables and grills here?

Plan on traveling to Atlanta in May 2017 and wanted to know the food situation in Midtown particularly around the Botanical Gardens - The restaurant LONGLEAF doesn't have enough information/photos of food (and menu seems a little pretentious) and I am concerned it won't be worth the money & time,,, I also wanted to know if there are any good food trucks, concession stands, and/or restaurants that are worth going to in Piedmont Park - We plan on staying local in the earlier part of the day and traveling to Buckhead for the evening to shop & dine...
