Nature is Calling
Outdoor adventure is an art in Winston-Salem. Gain some altitude at Pilot Mountain State Park or Hanging Rock State Park, take a drive and get lost in Yadkin Valley Wine Country, or head over to Salem Lake where you can enjoy kayaking, trails, fishing.
Nearby Tanglewood Park is a 1,100-acre public park offering two championship golf courses, a bed and breakfast, RV campground, horse stables, fishing on two stocked lakes, pedal boats, tennis courts, a public pool during the summer months, and so much more.
If you like meandering through beautiful gardens, then Winston-Salem has you covered. Check out the Reynolda Gardens, Paul J. Ciener Botanical Garden and Old Salem Museums and Gardens.
