This place is awesome the texture and flavor and views of mount Laurel and the trees are amazing. Lots of terrain and lots of Hills and valleys with the river obviously being the lowest and the hills and valleys just seem to keep on coming.

Great loop and easy to navigate. A bit messy after a storm, but cool to see the creek running high.

That’s a little wild little natural park near Chapel Hill. I am happy to spend 30 min here before or after work to sort myself. The bench are plenty and the signs are clear. Well maintained but pretty wild and natural place. Love it. There is a river just 2 min away from parking lot, just cross the meadow. An overlook with nice view where you stand on rocks enjoying the river curving below. There is only very few traffic, if you don’t want to see people but only mother nature, that’s the place to go. Note: there are wild trails at the turning point of the loop without official safety guarantee but pretty fun to explore.

There’s plenty of parking and even bug spray for use at the park entrance. It seems to be a bit of a small park but you can cross over to Duke Forest (clearly marked when you do) if you’re looking for a longer hike. Great water features and, although it’s close to the road, you can get far enough away to lose the traffic noise.

The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is the amount of people with their dogs off leashes. That and leaving their waste in bags on the trail. Other then that it's a beautiful place to run. Challenging and large enough to really make you feel it

My wife and I enjoyed ourselves while walking thru Hollow Rock. Plenty of stops to rest. Theirs benches there for you sit. Nice Paths, open space for you to walk through great areas to take pictures at. Its bigger than what you think. Make sure you bring your walking stick !

Very calm and serene. The plant life is amazing here even in the wintertime.

It's a short and nice walk...! But need more signs as there are too many splits and merges and little confusing...!

Nice little loop that's fairly simple to walk and offers some creek access. Also offers access to a loop through Duke Forest that's lovely.

Nice park with easy walking trails that you can hike with both 2- and 4-legged friends. Trails are not blazed, but easy to stay on the trail. Lots of benches along the trail. Good alternative when Duke Forest is closed on weekdays in Fall for deer culling. Park does border on some private properties, but well marked.

Nice place to enjoy Nature amid the insane gobble of land by development.
