What to know

At under four acres, Harris Depot Park is the town’s most intimate park, set among old-growth hardwoods. It keeps two pieces of local history — a historic post office and a log cabin representing the area’s early settlement — alongside a pond, a short paved loop and a beginner-friendly 9-hole disc golf course. From April through October it is the Harrisburg location of the Piedmont Farmers Market.

Harris Depot Park is inside Harrisburg, in southwest Cabarrus County. The address is 6960 Harris Depot Road, Harrisburg, NC 28075. Use the directions link from your own starting point; travel times depend on traffic and time of day, especially on speedway event weekends.

Before you head to the park

Harrisburg’s four town parks — Harrisburg Park, Pharr Mill Park, Harris Depot Park and Stallings Park — are run by the Town of Harrisburg Parks & Recreation department, and each has a distinct character: active fields and a splash pad, a river boardwalk, historic buildings and disc golf, or ballfields and courts. Frank Liske Park, just north in Concord, is run by Cabarrus County and follows county rules and hours.

Town parks are gated with seasonal hours, and covered shelters are first come, first served unless someone holds a reservation. Trails and connections can be closed for projects or after heavy rain, so the official park page is the place to confirm current conditions.

Before you go

Check seasonal gate hours
Confirm shelter reservations if you are bringing a group
Look for trail or facility closures on the official page
Bring your own discs, bags or paddles where courts and courses are bring-your-own
