TrailsEdit
The park features four relatively flat, easy hiking trails, some with excellent views overlooking the Duck River. The 1.3 mile Hickory Ridge Loop is located near the campground and traverses habitats ranging from oak-hickory forest to unusual cedar glades. The 0.7 mile Wilhoite Mill Trail follows the Duck River among second growth woods covering an early mill community. The 1.7 mile Turkey Trail loop is the longest trail in the park. It winds through rich woods and old fields. The 4.2 mile (there and back) Duck River Trail is the newest trail in the park, completed in 2011. All trails are relatively easy and are suitable for families and adults of all ages.
Duck RiverEdit
The Duck River flows through the park and is the longest river located entirely within the U.S. state of Tennessee. Free flowing for most of its length, the Duck River is home to over 50 species of freshwater mussels and 151 species of fish, making it one of the most biologically diverse rivers in North America.
GolfEdit
One of the finest courses in the state, the Buford Ellington Golf Course measures 5,625 yards from the forward tees and 7,020 yards from the championship tees. This challenging course is heavily treed with hardwoods, contains 37 bunkers, generous fairways and larger than average greens. There are three sets of tees to accommodate every skill level.
