Hiking in Georgia is great, but we get that sometimes you’re not always up for a “real” hike. Sometimes a peaceful stroll around a lake is all you feel up to, you know? Spending hours taking arduous treks through difficult mountain trails is fun for some, but plenty of people prefer something easier, and there’s nothing wrong with that. One great paved trail in Georgia that won’t take you all day and is accessible for everyone is the Lake Mayer loop in Savannah. This easy trail is stroller and wheelchair-friendly, and it’s such a peaceful little trip through a lovely area!

The loop spans 1.7 miles around the lovely Lake Mayer, which also happens to be stocked with fish if you're looking to cast a line.

The entire path is paved, with a couple of access points from the parking lot, so it's a perfect nature walk for wheelchair users or those with young children in strollers.

You're likely to spot plenty of wildlife here. Keep your eyes peeled for ducks, turtles, and seagulls.
