Added by Adam Hite

This is the best place to hike with your dogs in the metropolitan area. It's an off-leash park so you're dogs can run free and play with other dogs.

Parking can be found at Raleigh Lagrange Rd and Trinity Rd. There are several trails to follow as well as trails that can be found into the wooded areas. The perfect place for your pup that has a decent recall. Keep in mind, there are single-track mountain bike trails that share the park.

There are several ponds that your dog can swim in and play fetch. There is also a popular "beach" area where most dog owners like to stop and let their pups play with other pups.

Following the trails, you can easily get 2-3 miles of hiking with your dogs in. Expect your dog to be sleepy for the rest of the day!

My dog grew up running these trails and loved every minute of it. I would ride my mountain bike and he would lead the way. You can switch it up and ride a variety of different loops. Great fun!!

Float The Scenic Ghost Section of the Wolf River

The Wolf River is a hidden gem for any paddler located in west Tennessee or the greater south. Originally called “Blackbird River” by late 17th century French explorers, the upper Wolf River has been generally untouched by society and luckily has never fallen victim to industrial contamination. This particular section of river between Moscow and LaGrange, TN is representative of a wild swamp an...

Hike the Dismal Swamp Loop

Civil War history buffs may find themselves near the tiny town of Shiloh, Tennessee. While in the area be sure to explore Big Hill Pond State Park, in nearby Pocahontas, and hike Dismal Swamp. After a night at the park's campground I drove a couple of miles on well-graded gravel road to the trailhead. Be sure to stop at the Visitor Center to get a map as trail junctions in the park aren't well ...
