Gazebo in Thompson County Park

Highlight • Structure

Thompson County Park encompasses over 650 acres and plays host to the Brookdale Farm Historic District, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. There are trails around the property that are popular for walking and running.

Marlu Lake

Highlight • Lake

This little 22-acre lake is best reached from Thompson Park, or a trail along East Main Street. You can use that roadside trail to walk a complete loop around the lake, but the hike feels even longer than it looks on the map. (Not that that's a bad thing — just don't underestimate the distance!)

Big Brook Park ponds

Highlight • Lake

The park boasts a variety of natural features, including rolling hills, open meadows, wetlands, and a namesake stream, Big Brook. The two ponds here provide a relaxing spot to rest and enjoy the scenery.

Henry Hudson Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

There are a few different sections of the Henry Hudson Trail, and this one (like the others) is flat, completely paved, and open to walkers, runners, and cyclists. Make to keep on the right side of the trail so others can pass. There are a few different parking areas along the path, so you can start from a number of spots and just do an out-and-back.
