If Greensboro and High Point can claim somewhere as a "central park" it would have to be the parks…read moreand rec complex created by the fusion of City Lake Park, Jamestown Park and Golf Course, the High Point Greenway, and the Piedmont Environmental Center converging together on this point. If you can't figure out a way to spend a day outside somewhere in all that, you might just not like the outdoors! The Piedmont Environmental Center serves as kind of a trailhead for the High Point Greenway, as well as a system of lakeside trails that run along city lake and the golf course. The welcome center is attractive on the outside, though decisively could use a facelift indoors. Still, it has what you need. Restrooms, vending, information and brochures, and even a small exhibit featuring native snakes and amphibians from the Piedmont. I never pass up a chance to check out some snakes, preferably behind glass like these. The trails make a great place for a light intensity hike, a simple nature walk, or just a place to walk the dog. On my visit, it was an overcast and cool day in early spring, so it's not quite time for peak visitors yet. I prefer this time of year, things are quiet and serene, and the trees are just starting to bloom. There is no shortage of signage along the trails, and ample places to make sure you clean up after your dog. Another note, if you're a Pokemon Go player, there are no less than 12(!) easy to access gyms at both the major hub around the visitor center, and then several along the trails, not to mention a litany of Pokestops. Please only read this information and follow it if you're on team Mystic. The rest of you can feel free to forget you read it. All of this is free, so get out and enjoy nature as North Carolina provides in abundance!

We went to check out the playgrounds on this particular day, and there is two separate playgrounds which have their own parking lot. You will need to drive to each one, they are not close enough to walk. The first one was near a shelter and bathroom and had more to do. Though the second one I preferred because it was in the shade but there was no bathroom. This was the only frustrating part because I feel like you have to cut your time short or pack everyone up just to go pee. I hope they consider a solution for this because it's enough of a drawback for me not to consider going again. I have also played volleyball here and I can attest that they are great courts!

Went on the greenway on my bike on Saturday afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed every but of it. I got…read moreon the loop at W Fisher and N elm and went counter clockwise. To begin with i was riding pretty much through the side of the road. Then after a while it turns into the undone part of the trail, which even in broad daylight made me a bit uneasy and had spidey senses working over time. Once you get off the undone part though, it was gorgeous. The paved road is perfect to bike on, with great sculptures all along the pathway to keep you looking for more. The road itself was super smooth and it offered a nice mix of inclines and declined which made for a great workout Sadly I got a flat at E Bragg and Arlington so i had to walk back to my car after that, but I will definitely be back next time (will skip the undone part this time though) to finish this beautiful loop!

I have future ambitions to take on the MST, so going for a walk here gave me the opportunity to experience and complete a small section. The terrain varies from pavement to dirt to boardwalk and just about everything imaginable between that. There are offshoots and side trails along the way for added adventure. Lake views, fishing, bird watching, and an otherwise unexpectedly deep immersion into nature. Yet another incredible green space just minutes from town.

My son and I started this 5.7 mile round trip trail on a Sunday morning around noon. There is a…read moresmall lot right in front of the entrance and another lot across the street that is smaller. It took us a little over 90 mins to complete. It is mostly easy. The paths are clearly marked. You're near the lake, which offers nice views during the walk. There are a few points along the trail where you're able to get close the lake. I would be cautious as several parts of the trail have large roots. We both tripped up several times throughout. On the way back, we saw about 4 deer, which was pretty cool. The trail also goes behind several nice houses. I was surprised the homeowners don't have a gate up, but the houses were nice to admire. We enjoyed it! There are several other trails close by too.

The covered shelter was definitely a plus because it kept us out of the sun, especially with it being hot outside.

I enjoyed being there and don't really have any complaints -- overall it was a pretty decent park.

We had a hard time finding out where to actually start. Also, it has grown over in some places, so try to dodge the briars along the way. Also, there are a couple of entrances, so take a look at the pics with this review and check them out ahead of time! All in all, though, we had a good time just enjoying the fresh air and shade!
