Explore Park's Historic Area features a number of restored buildings including a schoolhouse, blacksmiths shop, barns, cabins, and mill. It's mostly flat and well maintained so you can do this one with the whole family.

Hiking

River Walk is closed for a new greenway but, most other areas closed to vehicle traffic is open to hiking/walking. Historic mill village is nice! Took our wedding photos there.
