Discover Antioch

For a stay in Antioch, you can plan around several leisure interests: paved park trails, park amenities for play and fitness, and ice sports. If you’re looking for a hotel in Antioch, your planned activities can be a useful starting point for choosing one. The locations have different focuses—from two precisely measured loop trails in a neighborhood park to public skating sessions and other ice programs.

Paved Loop Trails at Mariposa Park

Mariposa Park is a 10-acre neighborhood park in the Antioch Community in southeastern Davidson County. Two paved loop trails measure 0.16 and 0.35 miles, offering a shorter and a longer option. The acreage refers to the park as a whole, while the mileage figures refer to the trails; park area and trail length describe different measures.

Mill Ridge Park: Play, Activity, and Design

The first phase of Mill Ridge Park is on a 600-acre property near Cane Ridge High School on Old Hickory Boulevard. Construction of this phase was completed in summer 2023. Its centerpiece is Nashville’s largest adventure playground; amenities also include fitness equipment and a loop trail. Mill Ridge Park was designed as an inclusive space for all Nashville residents. The planning reflects the economic and ethnic diversity of the Antioch area. The acreage refers to the property, while the specific amenities mentioned are part of the first phase.

The park profiles have different emphases: Mariposa Park offers two paved loop trails with stated lengths, while Mill Ridge features a playground and fitness equipment alongside a loop trail in its first phase. If you want to choose a route by distance, the information for Mariposa is especially specific. If you want to compare different park features, Mill Ridge is the one to focus on.

Ice Sports at Ford Ice Center Antioch

Ford Ice Center Antioch is a twin-rink facility in South Nashville that opened in September 2014. Its programs include public skating, as well as hockey and figure skating for children and adults.

Online registration is required for public skating sessions. You must create a DASH account before registering, and check in at reception before skating. Registration and check-in requirements may change, so check them before your visit.

Stick Time is an open ice session for people of all ages, where you can pass, shoot, and practice your skills. Parents are encouraged to accompany their minor children on the ice. Since the availability and scheduling of Stick Time sessions may change, check the current schedule before making this activity a firm part of your plans.
