Active community centers and exploring areas near the Alabama River
The northern section of the neighborhood is rich in natural beauty. Gun Island Chute, a section of Alabama River, is a popular site for paddleboarding and kayaking. It's the spot for the annual Gun Island Chute Stand-Up Paddleboard Cup, a paddleboarding race. In addition to paddleboards, competitors can register to race in kayaks. Gun Island Chute is also a popular fishing site, with local anglers catching spotted bass, bluegill and common carp. Tallapoosa River also weaves its way through North Montgomery.

Adjacent to the zoo is Chisholm Park and Community Center. The park offers a large multipurpose field, playground and baseball fields. The recreation center features a gym, a large meeting room, a game room and an arts and crafts area. Children can also attend after-school and summer programs at the center.
