Welcome to Westwood park, which is a Henry County park. In the summer, it will cost $2.50 to enter. In the winter, it is usually free. The park is mostly consumed by the large lake, which can be seen from just about anywhere in the park.

The hike here will be strenuous if you wish to do it. You will be following the mountain bike/hiking trail, which is close to 8.5 miles in length. The trail makes it's way around the perimeter of the lake. There are no major hills, but some areas are slick and steep. Hiking boots and a walking stick are a must here.
And if you're a Geocacher, there are about 20 caches around the lake as well, so see some great natural beauty, get lots of cache finds and get some great exercise.
I completed this hike (on foot) in 5 hours and 5 minutes. While doing the hike, I saw MANY bikers passing me up!
