Caesar's Head Overlook
Scenic spot
👍👍 Drove here to enjoy a packed lunch with an absolutely stunning view! Also, went out to the Bald Rock scenic overlook just before getting to the Cesar's Head overlook. It's so sad that so many people have ruined the natural beauty of this gorgeous place by putting graffiti all over the rock surface....

Rainbow Falls
Hiking area
👍👍 Hiked yesterday (6/28/22) with my family. 2 adults and 3 kiddos (7,7,9). There was a little complaining by my twins on the way up but overall they did fine. Trail was awesome. A lot of roots and rocks on trail so be mindful. View of waterfall was beautiful and exceeded expectations. Pictures j...

Wildcat Branch Falls
Hiking area
👍👍 Very easy access to the falls. Parking is right off the road. Two different trails. Takes about 20 min to see all the falls. Back falls is just ok. Needs to have some rain beforehand, in order for it to flow good. Over all very much worth a quick stop.

City Scape Winery
Winery
👍 Fun afternoon wine tasting close to home. SC is not known for their wines, but City Scape takes a creative approach with small batch wines fused with local fruit. The tasting room is beautiful and the staff is friendly and attentive. The food offering is limited but tasty. They easily accommodated o...

Bald Rock Heritage Preserve

👍👍 Great place to hang out and take pictures in nature. Amazing view of the nearby mountain ranges like Caesar's Head! There are a few short nature trails but not much of a hike. Great for picnics or a quick get away!

Cedar Falls Park
Park
👍 It's a great park to walk dogs, run or have a family picnic. They also have a 1.5-mile nature trail for biking and hiking along the edge of the Reedy River. The park is always decently busy. If you're around the area and want to go to the falls, it's worth the stop.

David Jackson Park
Park
👍👍 Nice walking path for exercise that weaves around baseball fields and playground with bathroom facilities. Well maintained but not very scenic. I prefer trails that dive into the woods and wonder about a little. This is the place to go for exercise, you can take your leashed dog, which they even hav...

Riverbend Equestrian Park
Horse riding field
😠 Apparently there is great sand here for the horses. But beyond that, it's a rundown government facility. Tax payers' money is laundered through here for Greenville County Councilmen kickbacks, just like every other GreenvilleRec & county government boondoggle. Don't come; don't reelect the schylocks...
