It’s 2017! Resolve to Explore Woodstock’s Wonderful Parks!

If your New Year’s resolution is to get off the couch, lose weight or explore, Woodstock has a lot to offer to assist you with your goals.

Fun for the Entire Family
Get your cardio in while your children play at Dupree Park! Dupree Park is located on Neese Road, just south of Arnold Mill Road, in Woodstock. The park features a large playground, restrooms, four tennis courts, two basketball courts, ¼ mile walking trail, a fishing pond and two park pavilions.

A Quiet Afternoon Stroll
On days you prefer a quiet activity, you can explore at Dobbs Road Park. Dobbs Road Park is located off Main Street, just east of Chattahoochee Technical College. The park features a ¼ mile walking trail, park benches and a community garden.

On Hot Days
Since Springfield Park is heavily shaded, you can take your lunch there to enjoy the outdoors on the hotter days. Springfield Park is located just north of Highway 92, on Springfield Drive, in Woodstock. It features picnic tables, benches and a small playground.

Hit the Trails
Olde Rope Mill Park is an ideal place to go exploring. It is located at the end of Rope Mill Road, off Ridgewalk Parkway, in Woodstock. The park features multiple mountain bike and multi-use trails, park benches, picnic tables, park pavilion with grill and a scenic overlook/fishing platform. The park is home to the Taylor Randhal Memorial Mountain Bike Trail, which has fourteen miles of connecting trails that twist through nearly 100 acres of public park land. A pedestrian/bike bridge connects the south side of Little River to the north side, where you can see the remnants of an 1800s rope mill.

Exercise Your Fur Kids
Located at 150 Dupree Road in Woodstock, Woofstock Park is a place you can take your dog for some exercise and to allow them to socialize with other four-legged friends. The park features separate off-leash areas for small dogs and large dogs, shade structures, fountains, benches, and it also serves as a trail-head connection to Noonday Creek and Town to Creek trails.

With these places in our own city, succeeding in your 2017 resolutions should be easy. Just go out and enjoy Woodstock’s wonderful parks!
