Palm Beach County parks are an easy way to commune with nature. Whether it’s a city, national, state, county or Solid Waste Authority (SWA) facility, you’ll find plenty to keep you outdoors enjoying Mother Nature.
Recently, I’ve been going for the biking trails. In many of these parks, it’s fairly easy to cobble together a long ride off busy streets. And for those with electric bikes, these trails are accommodating.
However, if your goal as a biker is to go far and fast, these parks aren’t for you. Trails are often winding and busy with bikers and walkers. And a long ride requires a lot of circling about.
If biking isn’t your thing, don’t worry.
At a Palm Beach county park, you’ll find plenty of other activities to enjoy including everything from wave riding to BMX competitions; from horseback riding to disc golf; from nature trails to ballfields.
And, of course, there are a variety of water features including lakes, rivers and wetlands to view water fowl, alligators and plenty of other animals. For the kids, there are splash parks and playgrounds aplenty.
If you don’t want to paddle, bike, walk, fish, play golf or bird watch, you can just sit under a tree and relax. Even your dog will find fun at dedicated poochie parks.
