Brahan Spring Park has been here forever, ya'll. Since the 70s at least. It used to be home to the…read moreHuntsville Tennis Center, which the city moved to Airport Road - it was city owned and operated and public. They replaced the tennis courts with sand volleyball courts. The Park has the 2nd oldest disc golf course. It has at least 1 18-hole disc golf course in super-tall pine trees on the east side. You can fish here. The water features are on the south and north sides of Drake Avenue. People catch big mouth bass and catfish here. They have vending machines where you can buy food for the fish, ducks, and geese. There's a free splashpad here, and I think it's on astroturf that's open from Open Memorial Day - Labor Day, every day from 10:00AM to dusk. It closes very Tuesday at 5:30 PM and reopens on Wednesday morning at 11:00 AM to allow for maintenance. There's not a lot of shade near the splashpad, so you may want to bring an umbrella or some type of covering to get some relief in the hot summer months. I can't think of many restaurant options in the immediate area, except for the McDonald's which is just east of the park, the food court at Parkway Place Mall, the City Cafe Diner east of the park on Drake, a walk-up Taqueria El Cazador at Drake, and Triana and another Mexican place closer to the park on Drake. In other words, pack a lunch to enjoy! Covered pavilions are available to rent for events such as parties and reunions. We grew up playing ball in the ball fields at Brahan Spring. It looks like they offer flag football, soccer, and softball and baseball now. Personally, I would limit my visits to daytime/morning hours if I were taking children to this park. Also, the restrooms aren't very convenient to the splash pads and are often locked.

This was a hidden gem! Our grandchildren thoroughly enjoyed themselves! I will definitely bring…read morethem again when they come to w!

Monte Sano State Park is an absolute gem! The park offers stunning overlooks that provide…read morebreathtaking views, especially at sunset. There are endless hiking trails for all skill levels, each one more scenic than the last. Climbing the fire tower is a must--it gives you a whole new perspective of the area. To top it off, the disc golf course is one of the best I've played, with challenging holes surrounded by natural beauty. Whether you're here for hiking, disc golf, or just to take in the views, Monte Sano has something special for everyone. We managed to make it right before a huge storm opened up and enjoyed the overlook and a few hiking trails. The drive up is nice and scenic filled with windy roads. As we were leaving definitely be alert as the hill down is extremely windy and dangerous with a drop off. There is a fee you pay per person to enter which was not expected but it came to $5 per adult and the money goes back into the park.

Took my family on a nice little hike today. Took us about 2 hours and it was incredibly…read morechallenging! Such a beautiful part and I love the stone cut trail!

This was a part of a nice enough park and all in all, it was a cool place to spend a bit of time before climbing in my car and dealing with a couple hour drive. Our communities need parks and greenways. We need places that we can escape to and get away from modern living and get a glimpse of nature. Overall, I would definitely recommend here.

This is a cute little greenway. I love all the greenways and trails that Huntsville has. I prefer…read morethe paved ones like this because they also mow and it keeps the snakes out of the way. I like that this was along the creek. There are a lot of birds and stuff. There is a horse field along the way too. I did a 1.5 mile and turned around to get my 3 Miles. I didn't even hit the end of the trail.
