If you want exercise without distraction I'd suggest heading to the park by 6:30 as it can get quite packed. I nearly lost a limb from a biker going max speed. Only downside is that highway near it is loud. 9/10 turtles

We hiked every trail except the Rocky Path, we enjoyed the scenery and wildlife. There are plenty of benches along the trails, we even saw a bathroom or two (porta potties though). The location next to the highway (especially on the Valley View trail) and other homes does detract from the experience some. We went on a Tuesday so there were only a few people there. Overall good experience.

While the heights you can climb are not terribly high, and pale in comparison to places like Climb Nashville, for a kid they're great. Multiple paths labeled with perceived skill level, friendly staff, and an auto-belay device that lets them just let go and float down. For the price, it's great although as Ehren A notes you do have to pay to watch your kids, but a family of 4 gets in and out for less than 1 person at a dedicated climbing establishment. The walls are also rated to 300 pounds so the next time I go I'm climbing as well (although it's $2 more if you want to participate) Some things to note about this place are when you get there you need to go to the left. You'll get to what look like the main doors and it's not the right place... go to the left, there's a door there that says Outdoor Adventure Center. The first time we went we ended up at the locked at the time entrance and it just did not look right. Nope, go left, look for some standing outdoor chimes you can play, it's over there. As a note, included 1 picture here, there's another wall of climbing behind where I was shooting from, and there's a round climbing structure with at least 4 more paths to climb. There's also a 16+ finger grip wall hanger that looks nightmarish and not particularly fun if you're to that level, but you do you. The pool is great for younger kids as I recall, but the outside is in direct sunlight with no shade anywhere. Pool has been shut down due to toddler problems when I was there. They do keep it clean. Not particularly deep if I remember correctly.
