The Atlanta Journal-Constitution is committed to continuing our normal features, where appropriate, during the coronavirus outbreak. For full coverage of the outbreak in Atlanta, please check our Coronavirus News Section. We have decided to continue Best of Atlanta voting for the time being, despite social distancing. We encourage our readers to support local businesses after the authorities loosen the social distancing rules — along with supporting those businesses that offer delivery or pickup during the outbreak.
Options for indoor exercise have dwindled during the coronavirus pandemic, but that doesn’t mean you have to stop moving. The leaves are changing and the temperatures are falling — the perfect combination for taking a hike.
Hitting one of metro Atlanta’s myriad trails is a great way to stay socially distanced while getting fresh air and exercise. We’re lucky to have dozens of places to commune with nature within the metro area or just outside it.
This week’s Best of Atlanta poll wants to know where you go when you have the urge for walking in the sunshine or under a canopy of trees.
It’s impossible to include — or even know about — every place in the area, so if you don’t see your favorite, submit a write-in nominee by emailing your pick to nancy.clanton@ajc.com by 6 p.m. Wednesday, October 28. If enough people suggest your favorite, we’ll add it to our poll.
The winner will be announced November 2.
