Please join us as we experience together the Yorkshire Center, Falls Lake (Headquarters for North Carolina Parks and Recreation Facilities) located in North Raleigh. This side of the lake offers a different perspective, overlooking a wide vista of open water, connecting lake fingers from several different directions. Setups include around the Yorkshire Center with views overlooking the lake, two nearby walking trails (a section of North Carolina’s Mountain to Sea Trail), and a narrow sandy shoreline with gentle lapping water. A clear view of long tree lines pressing against the sky, lovely Dogwoods, River Birch, Pines, jagged rocks, decaying trees and wildlife. Parking, picnic tables and restrooms are available at the center.
