Wildwood Park is a city greenway for hiking and nature study in the heart of Radford . In this 50 acre wooded valley is a stream, Connelly's Run, several woodland habitats, marshy areas, meadows, and limestone cliffs with a tufa formation. The park also has a long and interesting history.
Yesterday explores Native American sites, a civil war battle, and the original city park.
Today shows what the park looks like now and describes its geology and biology. Tomorrow shows a plan for enhancing the park's educational and recreational features. For information regarding upcoming events, see our events page. This site was developed, in part, thanks to a grant to the New River Community Foundation and the City of Radford from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation's Managing Information in Rual America project.
