Creating, Conserving, & Connecting Parks, Trails, & Greenspace in Sandy Springs

First Trail Blazer Walk of 2025 Visits the New Springway Trail!

We are so excited to start our Trail Blazer program early this year with a guided walk on Saturday, March 8 at 9 am at the city's new Springway Trail!

Join us to walk the new trail from Overlook Park, down Morgan Falls Road and up to Orkin Lake to view the new boardwalk!

The 1.6-mile paved trail is the first of 4 sections that will make a 5.4-mile loop from Morgan Falls Overlook Park, to Cimarron Parkway, to Roswell Road, Big Trees Forest Preserve and then along a creek back to the river and Overlook Park! (Trail Plan Map and Info)

We are partnering with the Sandy Springs Women's Club on this walk and it's also open to the public! More Details and Register

Honoring 2024 Greenspace Champion, The Sandy Springs Garden Club

The Sandy Springs Conservancy recently presented a tree to the Sandy Springs Garden Club in honor of them being named the Conservancy’s Greenspace Champion in the fall of 2024. A disease resistant Princeton Elm was planted this month at Lost Corner Preserve as a gift to the garden club for their efforts throughout the years to make Sandy Springs a greener and prettier place for all!

Springway Update!



The city of Sandy Springs is putting the final touches on the first section of the Springway Trail! Railings, lighting and striping is in the final stages.

The paved multi-use trail is the first of 4 sections to make up the 5.4-mile Morgan Falls Connector, a loop trail to and from Overlook Park featuring a boardwalk over Orkin Lake.

The city is currently exploring options to fund additional sections of the loop trail. The Conservancy is contributing support materials and is prepared to make another contribution of community support funds to help secure construction grants.
