Can't seem to find these two places. New here, live south of 466a. Drove up yesterday and could not find them. Going yo up north again today. Can someone give us some specific directions, please? We will be driving a car, not a golf cart. Thanks for your help. It is sure a beautiful area up there.

On the last page of this link, there is info on the Springdale fitness trail. Looks like you take Buena Vista up to Belle Meade Circle. The fitness trail starts across from the Springdale pool.

Looks like the Mulberry Dog park is behind the Springdale pool. According to this link there is a path to the left of the pool.

Turn right into the Springdale gate going north from Buena Vista and the pool is about 1/2 mile on the left. The "fitness trail" is actually an asphalt path that follows the high tension wires going north and the dog park is a little ways up the path on the right. It has one side for big dogs and one for small dogs and it's quite popular!

We found both places. Thanks for your help. We do have a map a, but I put it in a drawer when we arrived two months ago and haven't looked at it. I use the iPad and GPS. Can't see the small print on maps. It would be great if that map awas online. I-'d be maore than willing to pay for access to it. Thanks again. We are having a pug visit for Christmas and were looking for a place to take him.

Here is a golf cart path map created by some great folks right here in TV.
I just checked and it points our where the fitness trail meets Belle Meade Circle.

Isn't it interesting that TV is now so big that people in one area haven't much of an idea about some other areas. Yes, it "sure is a beautiful area up there". I admit I too am surprised to see some areas for the first time.
