Percy Warner Park is located in Davidson and Williamson counties and is connected to Edwin Warner Park. Edwin and Percy Warner Parks, collectively known as “The Warner Parks,” are managed by the Metro Nashville Parks and Recreation Department. The Warner Parks are one of the largest municipally administered parks in Tennessee and together span more than 3,100 acres of forest and field, 9 miles from downtown Nashville. The Warner Parks offer a Nature Center, picnic shelters, dog park, scenic roadways and overlooks, hiking trails, mountain bike trails, equestrian center and horse trails, cross country running courses, golf courses, and athletic fields. Percy Warner Park is characterized by the steps built into the mountain located at the entrance of the park on Belle Meade Boulevard. Percy Warner Park is home to two golf courses, a nature center, and the Iroquois Steeplechase, which has been held there since May 1941. The parks were named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
