It is a charming and peaceful little park. Almost whimsical, like a little version of Alice in wonderland. Its right behind the library. So, on a nice day, you can rent a book and enjoy reading.

First time there. Very clean. Nice dog park area for my puppy to play. The dog park area is separated. There is an area for small dogs and one for big dogs. The trails are nice with lots to look at. We enjoyed our visit and will be back!

Chimney Park is a beautiful park full of nature and serenity. I went there with my twin teens and they really enjoyed themselves. The park also leads to a walking trail. We walked, talked and sometimes we just silently enjoyed the lovely sounds of nature. Chimney Park also has a place for your dog so they can enjoy the beautiful outdoors also. The dogs area consists of two fenced in play areas. There is a small fenced in area for small dogs and then there is also a larger area for larger dogs. We plan on bringing our little doggie there soon. Chimney Park is definitely a place worth exploring. Find your serenity while enjoying the magnificent and soothing effects of nature.

This trail is perfect for a nice run, walk or biking. There is a dog park before you get to the trail and a nice area for the kids to play. Plenty of rest stops along the 2.5 mile trail. It is a one way trail so to get to and from your car you will do 5 miles. I didnt know that part when I went out there but it was worth the run on a beautiful day.

This park is great, nice trail, beautiful artwork, but no body of water for dogs to drink from, no bathrooms, and the trail ends at a street so we had to turn around

This park is tucked away behind the library in Newton County. It is quiet and serene. The artwork is quite unusual and very entertaining! I adore the work thats been done around the remains of the home where the chimney still stands. So many photo ops!! The park is just next to a lovely paved walking path.

Took my two little ones one day after coming from the nearby library. I’m not sure what I expected, but it wasn’t much. There were a few things back there, but mostly just open space. I allowed my five and six-year-old to run around for a bit, but that didn’t last long because when no one else is around it’s sort of creepy. Scratch that... it’s very creepy. Also, the “park” could use someone to maintain it considering the fact that it doesn’t look well kept.UPDATE 12/26/2018 (Added 1 star from 3 to 4 stars.)My husband and I were looking for a place to take our children to see some Christmas lights. We saw a few people mentioning Chimney Park, so since its ten minutes from us, we decided to give it a try. When we arrived there were a few people already there, but after maybe five minutes, it was literally just us. The park wasnt overly decorated, but it was nice. My two little ones really enjoyed running around freely; even though it was a little creepy with it just being us. Either way, they had a blast. What they loved the most was the covered bridged kind of thing. It was wrapped with a bunch of lights, and they just kept going through and dancing. We stayed for a least a half an hour just walking around and checking everything out. I honestly had a good time myself. As you can see by the few photos Ive uploaded, whoever decorated did a good job. I will definitely bring the little ones back again next year.

Beautifull park in the heart of Covington with a nice walking or bike trail. Theres different items made by very talented people like a giant centipede made out of truck tires.

It has a small dog park and a few attraction to see. They seem to be working on restoration of the park but there is much to work on. They have a wonderful display around Christmas but its pretty bare though out the year. Its nice to have a quite walk through the park but its not the best place to let children play.

Public park tucked away behind the library. It would be nice if were better maintained. It has a fairy theam with fairy houses, circles, etc.... And a very good jogging trail. With a nice hill to climb. Its wooded. Lack of people there make it a little creepy. ....

A hidden gem behind the Newton County Public Library. Supported by volunteers, this park is specially designed to be accessible to all residents. The restored foundation and chimney are a beautiful setting in the woods.

Directly behind the County Library and Newton County Health Department. This is one end of a 5 mile trail (paved) between the Library and Eastside High School. The park is quite small but interesting. There is a dog park adjacent to the trail. The Chimney is the only standing part of an old Church from the Civil War era. The foundation is still there with only the front door propped up opening to the empty foundation. All walls gone. Steel girders reinforce the chimney to prevent it from falling. The town of Covington is historic with many of its Antebellum homes restored to original splendor.
