Reconstructed 17th century Occaneechi village on the banks of Eno River, near where the tribe had an actual village 300 years ago. Mon-Sun, dawn-dusk.

Occoneechee Speedway was one of the first two NASCAR tracks to open and is the only track remaining from the inaugural 1949 season. The site is now heavily forested in 40 year old pines and sycamores.

Given its proximity to the triangle, Eno River State Park could qualify as an urban park. But judged by the quality of its wilderness, this park deserves its statewide recognition. Within this linear park's 2700 acres (five access areas) are 21 miles of maintained hiking trails.

The park is named for the Eno Indians, who, along with the Shakori and Occoneechee tribes, lived near the river prior to European settlement.

A 1-acre neighborhood park, located at 333 W. King St., that includes a kids playground structure, a footbridge, several garden areas and sitting benches. The park is owned and maintained by the Town of Hillsborough but was built primarily with volunteer donations.

The 24-acre Gold Park on Dimmocks Mill Road includes a multi-purpose  field, playground equipment, picnic structures, a fenced dog park and a  little less than half a mile of Riverwalk.

Riverwalk is a 1.5-mile greenway that will connect downtown Hillsborough  with Occoneechee Mountain State Natural Area, off Orange Grove Road in  western Hillsborough.
