Trails and Parks
Big Canoe retains the qualities of a hometown set in an area recognized by Georgia Audubon as a nature preserve, so it’s no wonder that our parks, recreational areas and 25 miles of hiking trails are so central to community life.
Big Canoe Hiking Trails
The hiking trails of Big Canoe offer the best way to connect with the community’s natural beauty. The 25-mile network of trails, maintained by the Big Canoe Trails Committee, each have their own unique appeal and standout features. Ranging from broad, paved trails to forest footpaths, the trails meander among trees, streams, fern groves, meadows and the green spaces of Big Canoe. There is even a Jeep Trail to enjoy in a 4x4 vehicle.

Diamond Dog Park is the newest and largest dog park in Big Canoe. Diamond Dog Park is an off leash park providing play areas for both large and small dogs. New agility play equipment has been installed in both small and large dog areas. The play equipment provides good cardiovascular, muscular, and mental exercise for you and your dog. Diamond Dog Park is open daily.
WILDCAT DOG PARK & TRAILS
Wildcat has a network of paved trails for waking or cycling. The connected trails range from 0.6 to 1.9 miles. There are two Dog Parks at Wildcat that are located on the Red Loop Trail near the Pavilion parking area on Wilderness Parkway. Both Red Loop Dog Parks are a short walk past the pavilion and the message board. The “Big Dog” dog park is on your right and the “Little Dog” dog park is on your left. These two Dog Parks allow dog owners to separate smaller dogs from larger dogs when size intimidation is an issue.

When it comes to large-scale celebrations in Big Canoe, Playfield Park has often filled the role of the community’s central gathering place. However, the Playfield is also a favorite spot for joggers, walkers, children visiting the playground, and spontaneous baseball or soccer games.
