Known as the “Peachtree Rock Heritage Preserve” or the “Peachtree Rock Nature Preserve”, this property protects around 460 acres of some diverse ecosystems ranging from mountainous to desert-like plant communities. Several hiking trails highlight the interesting and unusual scenery. Camping is not permitted, and there are no paved roads, no picnic tables, no restrooms, and no trash cans, so this is definitely an area protected in its natural state. You can spend many hours here exploring this nature preserve.
