Maybury State Park

This is a lovely park that doesn’t take long to get to! We’re very lucky to have this essentially in our back yard. They have a farm and great playground also. There are mountain bike trails, plenty of walking trails both in woods and fields. There is so much to do and explore here. And there is something for everyone, even dogs! We also see family photos being taken here often. Enjoy!

Our family of four recently experienced our first hike here on the West Loop Trail, and it was an unforgettable outing. The weather was perfect, with temperatures in the 70s and a pleasant breeze, making the park feel incredibly peaceful. The hike itself was not difficult, even for our 3-year-old, who ran joyfully throughout the trail. The abundance of shade along the trail created a happy, relaxed vibe.

It was great place for fall foliage. We went there after the peak of fall color so we didn’t get to see the best view still it was very beautiful.

Clean and paved trails with good signage, it's perfect for walkers, runners, and bikers. Loved the farm with the new baby animals. So much interactive things at the farm for the littles. The playground is great for kids also.

Beautiful state park in North Ville. Good walking tracks, picnic places and sheds, beautiful trails. Well equipped and maintained children's play area.

Nice dirt trail with roots, some rocks, inclines, descents...some steep. Great hike.
