Great place, they have a splash pad, kayak launch, and plenty of walking/riding trails.

This park is very well maintained. Even the bathrooms are some of the best I've ever seen for a park. Very safe with multiple trails to walk, hike, run, and bike. Paved as well as dirt trails.

Woodkands Pavillion is the perfect place for any large outdoor event. Near a beautiful walking trail that's not a difficult walk for anyone. Many sitting areas along the trail with great vistas. Great for bird watchers and plant geeks. Next to a Splash Park for the kids.

Is the park open to have family get togethers without making a reservation?

Tausha Henon | Feb 10, 2020
Thomas Birkemeier | Feb 11, 2020

For family get-togethers you don't need a reservation, but anything over a get together I would check with them about. Like if you are planning a huge family reunion, a wedding, a large wedding reception, or something similar I would get in contact with them. I know a part of the Parklands near Broad Run has a large barn they rent out for just such occasions.

Where should you park for the quickest walk to the waterfalls?

Nicole Nolan | Feb 10, 2019
Parklands Parks | Feb 11, 2019

Nicole, The most popular and easily accessible falls is at Limestone Gorge in Broad Run Park. There is a small parking lot with a short walk down a concrete sidwalk to the Loop, go to the bridge to view the falls and the deep cut gorge. However, the waterfalls in our park are only visible after a large amount of rainfall.

Expect the normal creek fish, ie bluegill, sunfish (multiple species), rock bass, largemouth/smallmouth bass, and a few others ive heard some people have caught carp or drum there as well. Use live bait on smaller hooks or smaller lures!
