In Alpharetta, the Alpha Loop pedestrian trail connects dining, entertainment, offices, and neighborhoods on foot, while three shopping districts — including Avalon, one of Georgia’s top shopping destinations with 570,000+ square feet of retail businesses and a 12-screen premium theater. The city is also home to 10+ entertainment venues that keep weekends full.

The region’s most populated city of Sandy Springs provides the perfect place for a family hike at Morgan Falls Overlook Park or a visit to the award-winning Abernathy Greenway Playable Art Park  — a 6.6-acre playground built for imagination.

And Milton, GA treats community as a way of life, offering one of Georgia’s safest, most picturesque, and fastest-growing cities while still retaining its small town historic charm.

All throughout the region Chattahoochee River and National Recreation Area invite families to kayak, fish, or simply unwind across numerous parks and recreation areas.
