Julieanna Park Trail

Julieanna Park and Trail connects a parking area on Reel Road with McWhorter Park, and the loop located at McWhorter Park. The driving distance from the Julieanna Park parking to the McWhorter Park Pavilion parking area is only 0.7 miles. The wooded part of the trail is the portion from Julieanna Park to Tolar Road. The paved trail meanders along the creek and through tall pines, giant oaks, and other species. Most of the trail is quiet and secluded, with a few benches along the way for resting. The McWhorter Park portion is open and flat, winding around the baseball field and making a loop around the park area where families picnic, play and walk. Lots of walkers use this trail but don't venture to the more secluded areas on the other side of Tolar Road. If you're in town for a visit and need a place to hike, this is a good choice. The longer trails in town are over three miles long if you are wanting a more challenging hike.
