Did you know?
Only a few miles north from the heart of downtown Greenville, you’ll find an oasis offering mountainous trails and beautiful lakes. The wilderness at Paris Mountain State Park makes you feel like you are a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of life.
Did you know that the Greenville Water System used the land surrounding the park as the site of its first reservoir? The first reservoir was built in late 1800s. Today, these reservoirs are popular lakes within the park known as Lake Placid, Mountain lake, and Bukhorn Lake. The original dams and spillways still remain intact to this date.
Paris Mountain State Park is a center of activity for the city of Greenville. There are 40 site family campgrounds, 9 trails for hikers and mountain bikers, 4 park lakes for boating and fishing, 1 cool swimming area open during summer months, and 1,540 acres of parkland for you to explore.
