Parks and Greenways around the Raleigh NC area

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Trombley Real Estate

Still looking for a park near you. Raleigh Parks and Receration department has a great site to pull up those sites. And one of those parks is Lake Johnson Park. It has a 150 plus acre lake that has double the size of land around the lake. There is more that 3 miles of paved trails and almost 2 miles for more trails that are unpaved.

 You are viewing part of the park and lake. Can you imagine what this will look like this fall with the tree leaves changing their color? What a great way to get out and look around.

                                                                            What another great view.

 Just look at this trail what a great picture and breath taking for a walk. You can even ride you bike out here, but only on the paved trails the unpaved trails are for nature walks.

What a fun place to enjoy.

Well George,

North Carolina in town does look that way. They have taken the time to perserve many different places so when you are in town it feels like country. I am a country girl myself and I live in the country and I would not have it any different. It is 5 degrees cooler in the summer and winter. Less smog, better air and I really like it.

Susan,

Lake Johnson looks like a really nice park.  I am looking forward to seeing the fall color on our leaves here in North Carolina.

I just hate that last hill when I go jogging at Lake Johnson.  It's a killer but it's still beautiful out there.

I am glad to meet someone who likes the area and to be in the country while in the city.
