Lived near Radnor for 40+ years. Wildlife is varied, and as hunting is prohibited, deer show little fear of mankind: they stand & watch when people drive up. Change of seasons is gorgeous as well .

Ashley Owen

Check out the new Historic Valve House Trail for some information on the industrial origins of the park .

On weekends or exceptionally nice days, parking is really tough. Go early or be prepared to wait for a spot.

Savannah Reed

It was a beautiful lake . Fun hike . It was nice to see so many people out walking!

Richard Bartelt

Photography , bird watching and not enough parking .

Nicole Spaller

Take the entrance off Granny White instead of Franklin -Franklin side parking is a lot smaller & often doesn't have any available spots.

Joan Rowen

This is nashville's biggest secret. Beavers are back. Otters swimming around and playing. Look high in the trees for red tailed hawks.

Wannado

Get there early or head to the lot off Granny White to ensure there is a place to park .

Radnor Lake is such a great place to walk and relax. Bring your dogs too - however, they are not allowed on the wood trails , just the road around the lake .
