Review Quotes




Finally, a resource that pays tribute to Atlanta's rich and diverse habitats and park lands-bravo! Hiking Intown Atlanta's Hidden Forests makes it inviting for anyone to learn about and explore these relatively unknown, and many times underappreciated, outdoor sanctuaries.--Atlanta Audubon Society

Jonah McDonald and his hiking shoes are reinventing our deep-rooted image of a traffic-choked city smothered in asphalt and concrete. McDonald says it only takes a step into the woods beyond our backyards to begin a genuine pilgrimage into the natural world--yes, here in Atlanta, Georgia.--Saporta Report

Some say Atlanta is only about asphalt. This guidebook will change their minds.--South Fork Conservancy
