Whats not to like? Its 1/4 mile to the water from where you park. Super calm waters. Just awesome. Well be exploring the trails next time!

Richmond is lucky to have such a wonderful river and park system in the heart of the city. Deep woods with well maintained hiking and cycling trails and easy access to the James River for canoeing, kayaking or just sunning on the rocks. The park is also a bird watchers paradise with many species of waterfowl, hawks, owls, eagles and many smaller birds. This park is a gem, not to be missed.

Close to home, good birding spot. Can be pretty thick with dog walkers, and like most Richmond parks, not all dog owners are on board with the leash laws. Trail maintenance has improved recently.

Great lesser known trail system on the James. Very accessible. Flat and easy. Mostly shaded with nice variety of visual interest. Raised platform through wetland is very well done.

Its just lovely having some nature to escape to so close to the city. We should all do our part to keep it clean by at least not leaving any trash behind so that everyone can fully enjoy this gift.
