Recreational Facilities and Opportunities

Winthrop University Recreational AreaWinthrop’s recreational facilities fall into two categories: those open to the general public, and those that are available only to members of the Winthrop community (faculty/staff/students), Inn at Winthrop guests and other designated groups.

Many of the recreational opportunities afforded the general public are located at the east campus Lake Area Recreational and Research Complex (reference farm map) approximately 1 mile from central campus off Eden Terrace. The complex comprises the Winthrop Coliseum, Winthrop Lake and numerous athletics and recreational fields. The challenging 18-hole disc golf course surrounding the lake and coliseum has been the site of the U.S. and World Disc Golf championships. A one-mile loop surrounding the Winthrop Lake is one of approximately five miles of walking and bike trails that criss-cross the complex and conveniently connect to Rock Hill’s public trails.

Members of the Winthrop community, Inn at Winthrop guests and other designated groups also may access a number of other recreational facilities including a 9-hole golf course and a new 12-court tennis complex.

A group team-building experience at Winthrop’s Outdoor Educational Center (ropes course) also may be arranged for a fee.

For more information on recreational facilities, contact the Recreational Sports Office, 803/323-2198.
