Time for some exploring of Hopewell/Prince Georges waterways! Appomattox River Regional Park in Prince George County tucked away on River Road offers 3 miles of hiking trails as well as a canoe/kayak launch. We recommend packing a picnic to bring with you on your adventures and to always adhere to all posted signs. After launching your man-powered boat, paddle upstream to discover your new favorite fishing spot, and enjoy the float back to the dock!

Welcome to Prince George County! Conveniently located half a mile off of Route 10 you’ll find The Perfect Picks Flower Farm. This family-owned flower farm has acres of seasonal flowers patiently waiting for your family to cut and make your own bouquet. They recommend bringing your own pruning shears and cutting bucket/basket, gardening gloves, water, and closed-toe shoes. The price of admission allows one adult to fill up one 5-gallon bucket worth of fresh flowers!
