Peacock Hill Nature Park


We had a small group of hikers to enjoy the day at Peacock Hill Nature Park about 30 miles from Murfreesboro and in Williamson County. We first stopped in the Visitor Center that was a Bed & Breakfast in the past. The owners restored the cabin with antique items that were originally there. We hiked all the trails for a total of 6 miles. It's a well-maintained park with plenty of benches, a chapel, small pond, and lookout tower. Hikers were Jay Brain, Cindy Charest, Sara Pollard and Raisa Zavelion.
