Cochran Mill Park

Beautiful park with two different sections. Picnic areas with playground and restrooms on one side. Hiking trails and waterfall on the other. The waterfall is beautiful and views from the trails are really nice. Huge trees all over the park and seems to be the remains of an old mill by the waterfall and bridge. Very peaceful on both sides of the park. Saw people fishing in the creek and a nice swimming hole at the base of the falls.

Great place for an easy hike, or make it more difficult with one of the longer trails. The trails are well marked by color. Be sure to check out the map in the parking area before going on the hike so you now which trail you want to take!

super beautiful spot! waterfall was breathtaking! lots of different trails, but i would be careful walking through them during the summer as they get tight, and a little overgrown as snakes were spotted on the trails and under rocks.

Sunrise Hike Worth Waking Up For Praline and I visited Cochran Mill Park this morning for a sunrise hike, and it was absolutely beautiful. The trails were peaceful, the light through the trees was stunning, and there was plenty of space to roam and sniff—Praline was in her element! We’re always on the lookout for new spots to explore, and as someone who runs a dog walking and enrichment-focused business, I’m considering adding this to our day adventure lineup for client dogs. The variety of terrain and natural stimulation here is perfect for dogs who love to explore beyond the neighborhood sidewalk. Highly recommend for early risers and trail-loving pups alike! We’ll definitely be back.

First time hiking here and I loved everything about it! Parts of the hike was a lil intimidating but keep going cause it’s well worth it! So breathe taking! The waterfall is the cherry on top! You have to experience it for yourself!

The park was clean and neat. Thr parking is 5.00. it was some people there that biked and ran routes. It's a great place to be alone, but also meet people that have similar interests. The police was there for added security when I went on Saturday.

This was an immersion into nature. There are a few trails and the one we took was almost completely cutoff from the outside world. The waterfall is somewhat scalable which could be fun on a hot summer day and was seemingly safe to be at the base of. There’s plenty of space to picnic within view of the falls and short and long trails to traverse after.

Great place for hiking and swimming for the family. There are all type of trails from beginner friendly, horse trail and advanced trails.

After a few scrolls on All Trails I stumbled upon Cochran Mill Green Loop. Cochran Mill Green Loop was easy to find as it sits right off the main roadway. The parking is ample (and paid) and has space for horse trailer parking as well. As I arrived at the main area I took a moment to review the board. The board educated me that there were multiple trail options. Also, the routes vary by skill level and miles. I was so excited. As today was my non-gym day I decided to go for the Yellow Trail as it is Moderate in effort and is 3-4 miles. I was slightly confused at first, however, there was an entry to the trail towards the back of the parking area. Once I found it, it was all go from there. LoL! The trail was easy to follow as the path is easily identifiable. The woods are quiet and personal. There was a sense of peace as I was walking through the woods. The different levels of elevation provide for an enhanced view of the general area. I'm talking absolutely gorgeous. The spots of water provide a moment of serenity as you get lost in the sounds of water going down the stream. The path was fun as it was up, down, and all around. I had a blast. Truly, a blast. As I was getting to the end I got lost. lol. Thanks to All Trails for tracing my route as I was able to retrace my steps. Next time I'll pay better attention to where I parked so I can know where to go back to. Ha!! Today was amazing. Great air. Great trail. Great time.
