Townsend River Walk & Arboretum

This charming riverside walk impresses visitors as a labor of love for such a small town. The easy, shaded trail along the water features labeled trees and a whimsical fairy garden that delights children. While the experience itself is universally praised as peaceful and family-friendly, the parking situation requires some local knowledge—there's no dedicated lot, but the nearby Campground United Methodist Church welcomes visitors to park there.
