Leita Thompson Memorial Park

"This park is just the best. It has a great loop and several smaller loops. This is great to fine tune how far you want to go. There is a pond with a great big snapping turtle. There are snakes that watch you walk by. Deer are there living their lives. There is an eagle scout project in place around the park telling visitors about many of the tree species. There are a couple of pretty decent hills to go up. It's shady in the summer to keep you cool. There are a couple of porta pottys. There is a water fountain (turned off during the winter).My favorite part is seeing the friendly faces on the trail."

"Didn't know this small park would be so pretty. It was a quick mile, I followed the blue line. The lake view is beautiful, fishing is allowed but no swimming. I don't recommend running because the road is rocky, has ups and downs. Although I saw some people jog through the trail. There's a dog park and a little library box."

"I adore this park. Wooded and quiet on the trails, located off one of the busiest roads in Roswell. You'd never expect to find what's back there! It's a great place to go if you like trail running or a moderate hike. There are several trails and loops, ranging from 1 mile to 2.5. All are well-marked. The hills can be steep in places and windy with switchbacks. No running water restrooms-- portapotties only."

"Great local trails with a couple options depending on how far you want to go. We walked the blue trail, plus a lap around the lake, which was just over 2 miles. Lots of shade, a beautiful lake, and great little running streams."
