A lot of history, park is on an old slave plantation. Walking trails along with bike trails. Nice playground area for kids. Also have zip line, and axe throwing. One of Williamsburgs hidden secrets.
Enjoyed stopping here and walking around. The small free botanical garden was delightful! We sat and watched the birds visiting a feeder for a while. Also found a couple of geocaches during our visit.
We love this park! Family friendly with lots of activities for everyone. Very well maintained. Be sure to check out the free botanical garden!!
Get there before 12. Visit the old buildings, the graves, the trails, there playground, the hatchet throwing, and the ropes course. Bring gloves for the ropes course and shoes. Kids enjoyed one of shorter trails there and loved the playground. Bathrooms available along with a botanical garden. Bring your food out buy from them before 5.
Freedom Park is a wild find for any Mountain biker. The loop C has an obstacle ever 100 yards, seems that way. The trail has table tops, half table tops, small to large jumps, skinny rails, dirt jumps, gap jumps, and a few others. Most MTB trails similar to this are paid. The trail apps rate this as blue/intimidate. I would say, the big jump is a black diamond rated jump. That's my opinion. One last part, the trails flow with quick ups/downs and tight turns.
The trail is super smooth and in great shape. They have great restrooms and a bike wash too. I could ride the Loop C and Loop A all day.
