From the reviews

…4 miles long so it takes just over 2 laps to get a mile in). There's a sweet little playground, bathrooms, a covered picnic area for parties, and a large field and movable goals for soccer games. You can see the Blue Ridge Parkway from the trail and in the fall the maple trees are gorgeous.
