Located about 15 minutes southeast of Uptown, the McAlpine Creek Park is a sprawling recreational playground which is particularly popular with runners. McAlpine Creek Greenway and Campbell Creek Greenway meet in the park, offering walkers, runners and hikers a (mostly) paved 4.9mile trail which is both scenic and rich in wildlife. Apart from this popular Greenway, McAlpine Park has plenty of other activities for visitors including soccer fields, a 1.5 mile nature trail, a 2-mile bike trail and an outdoor fitness center. In addition, you can enjoy fishing from the fishing pier, play horse shoes, have a picnic or bring your four-legged friends to have some off-leash fun at the Dog Park.
