Shoup-Parsons Woods Park is a 17-acre natural area accessed via the Goshen Dam headgates, featuring a fully accessible paved trail loop, boardwalk overlooking wetlands, and boat launch for fishing and paddling on the Elkhart River and Millrace Canal.

The park offers year-round restroom facilities (port-a-let in winter), parking, and interpretive trails, making it an ideal access point for both recreational paddlers and anglers exploring the local waterways.
