DeKalb County parks close at 10 PM (or sunset for some natural areas) and reopen at 7 AM. Stone Mountain Park operates on separate state rules. After-hours presence is trespassing.
DeKalb County Parks and Recreation operates more than 80 parks with standard hours of 7 AM to 10 PM. Natural areas and preserves (Arabia Mountain National Heritage Area portions within DeKalb, Davidson-Arabia Mountain Nature Preserve) close at dusk. Athletic fields with lights may extend to 10 or 11 PM for permitted leagues. Camping is prohibited except at designated permitted facilities. Stone Mountain Park, though partially in DeKalb, is state-operated by the Stone Mountain Memorial Association and has its own gate hours (generally 5 AM to midnight for the park grounds, with attraction-specific hours). DeKalb Police and park rangers enforce after-hours violations as trespassing.
After-hours trespass: $100 to $500 citation. Unauthorized camping: $100 to $1,000. Vehicle left in closed park may be towed at owner expense.
