February 21, 2021Perfect hike for snowy weather.
February 20, 2021Easy trail, nothing special. But good in the snowy weather
February 7, 2021February 2, 2021Lots of paths to go many different ways. Will explore more. Would be great with kids.
January 31, 2021It’s a nice and easy walk. My biggest complaint is that there is dog poop everywhere.
January 23, 2021January 22, 2021Beautiful trail. Not many people out. Definitely follow the map since the signs aren’t well labeled.
January 18, 2021Nice, flat trail. Monday evening - no one else but the birds!
January 17, 2021January 16, 2021Awesome hike. Mostly flat and well kept with a few mud pits to walk around. The signage needs to be updated, we followed the wrong fork about half a mile only to have to turn around and retrace our path due to wear and tear on the trail markers. Other than that, very peaceful and low traffic.
January 16, 2021Signs are unhelpful, so make sure to watch your progress on the map. The given "trail" is not very descriptive and there are many extra loops and off branches to choose from if you'd like. Very little cover from trees so it can get a bit cold with the wind and hot in the summer I imagine. Very nice views. If you play Pokemon Go: One Gym at the main outdoor center and only two stops in the entire trail system, come prepared. :)
January 15, 2021Probably my fave easy hike in the Nashville area. Recorded my preferred route today, but there’s plenty to explore, so repeated visits are recommended. Pro Tip: if you don’t want to be heckled for wearing a mask, don’t stop at the Trump flag-waving gas station on Old Hickory.
January 12, 2021Flat, pretty
December 27, 2020Really pretty grounds but it was so difficult to know where to go. The signage is inadequate. It was a maze! Pretty tho and not busy.
December 27, 2020It was a good walk - a step above a paved trail. All grass, no rocks, roots or trees on the path. Like a walk in a pasture.
December 21, 2020November 29, 2020November 26, 2020November 20, 2020November 15, 2020Open field. Little cover so hot in summer . Great in fall/spring
November 7, 2020November 7, 2020Excellent
November 1, 2020Scenic and easy hike. Nice mowed paths and not super busy either!
November 1, 2020November 1, 2020Field type hike with mowed paths
October 4, 2020Fairly flat field walk. Open to sun so summer can be hot . Chiggers like the high grass in summer . Lots of butterflies in late summer and early fall
October 3, 2020Easy flat walk through fields of wildflowers. A bit monotonous, but a nice loop.
September 30, 2020Open field trail. Not marked the best. Went in the summer and there is not tons of shade. Dogs are allowed, however always check for ticks leaving from there. Found them on me or my dog after every visit.
September 22, 2020Too many bugs
