​The Garden in the Forest was dedicated in 2012 in memory of James B. and Lillian Cain through generous grants from the Cain, Murchison and Kohl Foundations along with Keep Athens Beautiful. This area features a short, paved trail surrounded by beautiful gardens, statues and trees that provide plenty of shade.
Many new plants have been donated to this garden, and new pathways connect our trails with additional shaded benches. Low-lying brush has also been removed to expand the space. ETABS board and staff members hope to eventually connect this trail with the Carl D. Frentress Hickory Loop trail.
