Heardmont Park

I visit Heardmont Park three times a week max. This is where the bootcamp I attend takes place. They have everything - pickleball and tennis courts, soccer fields, asphalt walkways on which to run or walk, dog walkers, a gazebo, a football stadium along with a 400m track, a senior center with a garden the seniors attend to, a playground, and several bathrooms which are normally clean. My husband likes to see what the seniors are growing in their garden and mansplain why they should put chicken wire around the blueberry bushes. "It's all in good fun", I have to tell the ladies who threaten to kick him out every time.

♿️ Beautiful, concrete walking trails that are all accessible to everyone. They are mostly level, except for the rise and fall of the bridges. The landscape is amazing and if you just want an amazing place to walk or have a picnic with these views, this is it. Bicycles are welcome, as are leashed pups. There are many trash cans and bags available to pick up after your dog. There is a senior center on site, along with a playground for the littles. Every picnic table was under a shaded or secluded area and there was the covered pavilion with 3 unisex restrooms that are very much wheelchair accessible. I found benches all along the trail that winds its way around the entirety of the park. And an added bonus are the lighted pathways if you choose to walk at dusk. There are several maps so you will know where you are at all times bc this area is large and I only covered about half of it. I found another parking lot further down that would have been the "start" had I walked it all. I did double back so I could cross 2 of 3 bridges just so I could listen to the creek. Not much rain equals very low water tables, but there was enough to see it flowing. There is a tennis court, pickleball, 2 soccer practice fields, a baseball field, and I think it was a softball field at the top all by itself, but I also believe there is a football field here too. Parking is readily available and it was not crowded at all when I went, probably the heat. There were a couple of kids playing in the water and a few at the playground. Overall, really enjoyed everything about this park and would love to see some wildflowers growing in between the rocks. The grounds crew was hard at work during my visit. A lot of the area is shady, so you aren't in the sun as much unless you choose to be. Will definitely return.

**edited to add that you have to walk a long way to get to the fields in the back like H4. Also, take the bridges as some spots Are full of water and they are slick! We love heardmont. The bathrooms are great! There’s a ton of room to spread out and exercise. There’s a playground, concession stands, the area gets flooded a good bit when it rains. The batting cages are primarily used for practice with the different teams there but we manage to sneak some time in them in between. This still isn’t Mayberry so watch your kids people! There are general repairs that need to be done with boards that come up on bridges and etc so use caution when walking, riding, or your kids are using their scooters. Also, as far as games go, there are a few ways to get into the park and there’s help for people who are handicapped or elderly to get to the back of the ballfields.
