Our First Stop:
Powers Lake Park in Woodbury
Powers Lake Park in Woodbury is a local favorite for nature walking. A paved trail circles the 58-acre lake and offers spectacular seasonal views. The playground and off-street parking are just behind the Woodbury Fire Department on Brookview Road. The developed portion of the park offers plenty of green space, space to picnic and restrooms, but the full park follows the walking trail all the way around the lake. There is off-street parking for about 20 vehicles and restrooms available.
Powers Lake East is slightly more than half a mile away from the playground on the trails. It has a second playground plus tennis and basketball courts. The courts at Lakeview Knolls Park are actually a little closer to the main Powers Lake Park.
