French Broad River Park

Beautiful park! It's soooo green and well maintained. I see some people hung their hammocks on the trees. Great idea!! This is a great place to relax or go for a picnic. Lots of shade. There are not a lot of parking, luckily we were able to get a spot. The restroom is right next to the parking lot, didn't have a chance to check it out to see if it's clean but looked fine from the outside. The park is one of the stops that link to the long walk way along the river. It's a great trail, easy & flat with beautiful nature, calming environment. Highly recommend taking a walk here. We also walked by a decent size dog park. They split it into 2 areas for large dogs and small dogs. Lots of room for your dogs to run around and play with other dogs. Looked like they were pretty happy!

So pretty! We parked here and walked to New Belgium Brewing Company and back. We walked up to the brewery, so from start to finish, it was just under 3 miles for us. Very nice and leisurely walk with other walkers and bikers, but it wasn’t overly crowded at 11:45 am on Saturday, 5/18/24. It took us an hour. Definitely recommend! We suggest wearing sunscreen and bringing water because there’s not very much shade.

We love this park. Great place to relax or exercise. Also, I love to bring our dog to the dog park. My family has been going here for years. This day we went to the new labyrinth and walked it. We love uaing labyrinths as a tool for meditation. We took our dog, Betelgeuse, to the dog park, then went home. Great way to spend a Saturday.

Great place for a stroll by the river. If you have dogs it's one of the best dog parks in town too. I love that they connected the bike path through there so it makes it a great place to bike as well now.

Wonderful park along the riverside with humourous ban of sex offenders by the city. "Welp, guess I'll go be a predator somewhere else!" Saw a river otter bobbing along early morning. It appears there's a healthy morning crowd that does laps here.

Very nice park along the river with nice trails to walk or run. They also have a dog park with separate sections for small and large dogs. Saw people on floats just enjoying the river as well.

Incredibly beautiful and well maintained park. Bordering the French Broad River, the park offers plenty paved walking paths, great for biking also, and there's ample space on large grassy areas for volleyball, frisbee tossing, croquet, or just lying around being lazy. Come on out and bring the family and friends and food and have lots of fun!

Really useful and well-maintained with lots of trails, benches, bathrooms, and a dog park. Sufficient parking, too. Will definitely go again.
