About Henderson Park
Henderson Park is located in Tucker, Georgia, and consists of approximately 120 acres. Regular park visitors include birders, cyclists, dog walkers, tennis players, picnickers, soccer players, fishermen, hikers, and gardeners. Among the park’s amenities are soccer fields, tennis courts, a playground, picnic shelters, hiking trails, a lake, a “Native Plant and Wildlife Walk”, and a community garden.

The Friends of Henderson Park group was established in the fall of 2011 not to address a problem, but rather to build upon what the park already offers, to enhance its value to all the different park users and to attract new users.

Henderson Park has over 6 miles of hiking trails that include a paved and a 1.75-mile loop around Lake Erin, with wildlife and plants along the way.

Difficulty level: Easy to Moderate. There are a few challenging hills, but alternate trails to avoid them as well. The paved path, on the Henderson Road side of the park, is roughly ½-mile of easy walking, but good exercise! The blue, red and white-trails through the park are 1-2 miles in length on unpaved paths.

Terrain: Unpaved wooded trails with roots and rocks and small creek crossings (no need to get wet feet though).

Dogs and their owners are welcome in Henderson Park. Dogs must be “under restraint and control at all times” as per DeKalb County Parks Rules & Ordinances. And, we strongly encurageall owners to “scoop the poop". From Friends of Henderson Park webpage
