There's different surfaces and various undulations. There's several bridges you cross and it reminds me of the walkabouts in Australia.

We started at McCabe Park trailhead (4911 McCabe Park Dr, Nashville, TN 37205); there is a golf course there as well. Following the trails and walking by the Richland Creek (which is a stream on the west side of Nashville, Tennessee, formed by nine tributaries flowing north to the Cumberland River) is just beautiful, immersed completely in nature and green. Expect people with dogs, on bikes, skates, you name it, on the trail. It's pretty popular! If you want to ensure you remain in the greenway trail watch out for the green stumps. the "green stumps" are a well-known marker along the Richland Creek Greenway in Nashville. They're part of a trail maintenance/landscape feature: green-painted wooden posts (stumps) along the path used as visual markers to help walkers and bikers stay on the trail, especially near forks or trailheads The trail actually features a loop around McCabe Park/Golf Course and sections following the creek and old railroad tracks, connecting Sylvan Park to shopping areas and offering history like Dutchman's Curve. Parking available at the McCabe Trailhead near the golf course clubhouse. It's total 4.1 miles. The Richland Creek Greenway at McCabe Park crisscrosses the creek several times as it encircles the McCabe Golf Course. This greenway features several neighborhood accesses, the McCabe Community Center and baseball fields, and greenway connectors to nearby shopping centers. Nashville State Community College and Tennessee College of Applied Technology campuses also enjoy direct access to this popular suburban greenway treasure.

Nothing but sweet nature sounds like birds and leaves in the wind. Pups are allowed on some trails and ours really enjoyed it! There is a visitor center with restrooms and maps, then even had some live acoustic guitar music being played by a sweet gentleman! Some parts of the trail were closed due to flooding, but we still got a great workout in! Excited to return.

Serenity, beauty, tranquility, lush, green, nature escape...several words that come to mind when I…read morethink of Timberland Park. We stumbled upon the park while driving the Trace and decided to stop for a quick stroll and stretch. We were pleasantly surprised with the immaculate trails (perfect t for walking or running), and the lush greenery that surrounded it. The trails are marked so it's easy to navigate, and you're never too far from the car. As we were walking a light drizzle began and the sound of the wind and the rain falling on the trees was magical. Timberland Park is a place that takes you away from the city and into a world of nature and calm. If we lived here I would frequent the park and run the trails. They also have swings and benches along the way for a rest or a lovely place to sit down and journal or ponder life. The park is very well kept and the ranger does a good job of making sure people know when it's closing time. They have porter potties available if necessary as well. I wish we had more time to explore because I am sure there are wonders throughout the park that I have missed, but maybe I'll discover them next time, Highly recommend Timberland Park for exercise, recreation, personal reflection time, or just a pretty picture.

Hubby and I drove a good bit of this parkway while visiting Nashville for New Years.

We also stopped to walk a short trail to old limestone mines. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area!

There is a lot to like about this large park and it's one of my favorites. I'll break it down by…read morethe primary features. Trails: this is the primary reason I go to Crockett Park. I sometimes walk but mostly bike on the trails with a little one. They are relatively flat and because they are so long, they are rarely crowded. The trail users vary in age and there are plenty of blind curves, so it's not a place to go for fast biking. The scenery is varied and the majority of the trails are shaded. As a bonus, there are lots of places you can dip your feet in the Little Harpeth River. You can bike from Smith Park to the south to Tower Park north of Concord Road. The trails also connect to various neighborhoods, the Brentwood Library, and the Brentwood YMCA. Five stars. Playgrounds: there are several playground at Crockett Park/River Park. The main one near Woodland Middle School between baseball fields. It's large with a divided small kids and big kids section. Kids love it, and there are plenty of benches and tables for parents to sit or for a lunch break. Five stars. Frisbee golf course: 18 holes and, unlike many in the area, clear signage. Some holes are similar and a few are pretty short, but overall good course for a quick game. Four stars. Restrooms: these are all over the park. Some are closed part of the year, but for the most part they are open and reasonably clean for public restrooms. Four stars. Parking: You can park more places than I can count off the top of my head to start your walk, jog, bike ride or attend a sporting event. Amphitheatre: The Eddy Arnold Amphitheatre is great for summer concerts, of which there are many every year. Sports fields: I don't use them at this time, but they are very well maintained and there are a lot of football, soccer, and baseball fields. Parking: You can park more places than I can count off the top of my head to start your walk, jog, or bike ride. This is handy for days when the fields are crowded for soccer and/or football games, because you can avoid the traffic. Most lots are adjacent to a trail. Check it out for one or more of these features when you get a chance.

I've only visited a couple of times and have mostly walked the perimeter, so I haven't seen…read moreeverything this park has to offer. However, what I've seen is absolutely gorgeous. There is truly nothing like being out in nature, walking the trails, and taking in the wildlife and beautiful scenery. I've seen people enjoying leisurely walks, others getting in a serious workout by jogging, kids playing hopscotch, and some simply stopping to appreciate the beauty of it all. The atmosphere is so peaceful that I've even sat in my car in the middle of the day and read a book, that's how relaxing this place is! The hills can be a bit challenging, but they're well worth it. Now, my legs may have had a different story on the topic (LOL)! Whether you're visiting alone or spending time with family and friends, there's something here for everyone. This is definitely a kid and dog friendly place too! I can only imagine how much more there is to explore within the park. I look forward to returning and discovering this rich urban forest. Pro Tips: *There is plenty of parking, both as you enter the park and further down near the nature center. Stop in there as well -- You can pick up directions and a map of the park to help plan your visit. There are also events that take place throughout the year. *Admission is free, for everyone to enjoy! *Try to go in the mornings or mid day. *Bring your camera and preserve your memories, it truly is a beautiful place. *As a safety precaution, always make sure to lock your car doors, you can never be too careful! As I continue to return, I will be sure to update you on my various experiences. So I hope you follow along! Muah!
