It connects several parks, including Riverside Park, Tharrington Park, and HB Rowe Environmental Park. Along the way, visitors can enjoy the natural beauty of the Ararat River and Lovills Creek. The greenway is popular for walking, running, biking, and even kayaking, thanks to convenient access points to the water.
