There’s nothing like the arrival of springtime to inspire some outdoor exploration. Luckily, we have countless parks and natural areas to enjoy here in Virginia. Today, we’ll introduce you to a relatively undiscovered park that is perfect for a springtime outing with the whole family. Waller Mill Park offers biking, hiking, walking trails, and enough beautiful scenery to impress just about anyone.
Welcome to Waller Mill Park, a breathtaking 2,700 acre park that's been open to the public since 1972. Yet even so, this destination has been something of a hidden gem.
The park's central feature is a gorgeous 360-acre lake where visitors are invited to fish, canoe, kayak, and boat. In fact, there are even pedal boats available for rent.
Yet the water activities only begin to scratch the surface of all the recreational opportunities you'll find at Waller Mill Park. Nature enthusiasts can choose from a variety of trails, which offer a beautiful escape into nature.
