Country Park is a great place for trails! The Country Park Loop is a one-way, one-lane road open to cars, bikes, in-line skaters and pedestrians. The Veteran’s Trail of Peace, located behind the Veteran’s Memorial, provides a pleasant walk for quiet reflection near Richland Creek. Country Park is also developing a new interpretive nature trail for persons with special needs that will be fully-accessible to everyone.
The Copperhead Trail dips and twists through the wooded areas of Country Park with its berms and gullies that keep the mountain biking locals coming back for more. "The Zone" is a new place for expert mountain bikers and BMX'ers to test their skills on a downhill jump course. "The Zone" features a number of jumps, burms, rhythm and whoop sections sure to get the adrenaline flowing. Helmets are required in "The Zone" and rules are posted on the kiosk next to the course start point behind the Stoner-White Stadium scoreboard. Inexperienced riders are discouraged from entering "The Zone." For more information, call 336-545-5343.
