Vickery Creek Hiking Trail + Old Mill + Ruins + Dam Roswell Georgia
A covered bridge. Civil war mill ruins. A towering waterfall that pours from a historic spillway dam. There’s just a lot to love about the Vickery Creek Trail at Roswell Mill: it’s scenic, shady, and makes a great in-town hike or moderate trail run.
This five-mile adventure explores the historic Roswell Mill and the surrounding rolling forest in Roswell, Georgia. It’s one of the best hikes in the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area parks near Atlanta, though its trails don’t follow the actual banks of the Chattahoochee River. Instead, this hike explores the historic remains of Roswell Mill and visits the mill’s spillway dam waterfall on a Chattahoochee River tributary. The 5+ mile trail network hikes through beautiful, rolling forest and catches views of the rushing dam waterfall from a steep rock bluff.

Vickery Creek Trail: hiking Roswell Mill near the Chattahoochee River
View our complete Vickery Creek Trail review for directions, maps and detailed info:
Hike the Vickery Creek Trail in Roswell near the banks of the Chattahoochee River. An equally great hike or trail run, this rolling trail network explores historic mill remains at Roswell Mill, crosses a wooden covered bridge spanning Vickery Creek, and catches gorgeous views of the historic spillway waterfall that once powered the Civil War-era mill. The trail meanders through a young hardwood forest, weaving and winding through rolling terrain, making it a great, family-friendly hike, and one of metro Atlanta’s best beginner-friendly trail runs.

VICKERY CREEK - Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area - Best Places To Hike In Georgia
Vickery Creek is one of the best places to hike in Georgia just outside of Atlanta. This trail system is moderate and provides an extensive number of option of trails to hike to extend or reduce your time on the trail. We planned to only do 4.7 miles but found that we were closer to 6 when we finally returned to the trailhead.
This trail is dog-friendly but requires $5 to park or have the America The Beautiful Annual Pass as this trail system is within the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area.
As you make your way to Roswell Mill, you will find a few Dam Waterfalls along the trail. Keep in mind, this place can be packed on the weekends and does have a lot of road noise.

SLIP AND FALL - Vickery Creek - Best Places to Hike in Georgia
Vickery Creek is an awesome place to hike just on the outside of Sandy Springs on the border of Roswell by the Chattahoochee River.
However, exercise extreme caution out on the areas near the waterfall as the rocks can be slippery when wet.

Roswell Old Mill Park
After being downsized from IBM and Readers Digest, I listed homes for sale in upstate NY. After a bad year in real estate and feeling like I had too much stuff I realized that I was watching my life waste away. I sold many of my personal possessions and converted a Ram Promaster cargo van into my new home.
Now, I'll always have my house with me, wherever I go. I can boondock anywhere with my conversion van. I have been to places as far south as Key West and have plans to go as far west as California. I will travel the continental 48 with a free spirit, playing my songs on my guitar for whoever will listen.
I don't know how long I will do this, but will do it as long as I want.
I hope to make many friends along the way.
This video is of my experience at the Old Mill Park in Rosewell, Georgia.

Vickery Creek Falls & Roswell Mill - Vlog and Photography (5/10/2019)
Taking some time to explore some of the beauty the state of Georgia has to offer. Hard to believe that all of this can be found 5-10 minutes away from the bustling big city, but that is one of the great things about Georgia, you can have the best of both worlds.

Big Creek Dam Flooding - Roswell GA - Jan 2015
After about a week of heavy rain (4-5inches) this is what the old Big (Vickery) Creek Damn looks like. The normally tame creek turned into a raging river flooding trails in the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area.
Roswell King dammed the creek to power a cotton mill, which became fully operational by the latter half of the decade. The mill was incorporated as the Roswell Manufacturing Company by an act of the Georgia General Assembly on December 11, 1839.
