Where to Have a Picnic in Raleigh — do you Know All these Spots
"William B. Umstead Park is the home of many nostalgic memories of cookouts, camping trips, and picnics for Raleigh natives. The state park includes 20 miles of trails for both seasoned hikers and casual walkers alike and is home to some of the most well preserved nature in the Triangle. Picnic shelters with tables and grills operate on a first-come first-served basis, but can also be rented ahead of time, perfect for a birthday celebrations or graduation picnics for members of the class of 2021 (consider ordering premade meals from Catering Works for occasions such as these)."
