👍 This is a very nice park. The walking trails are wide and accessible, varied and rambling. It's not 5 miles of trails but it's a superbly enjoyable walk with enough options and scenery to be refreshing on each visit. The hillside has been a sledding favorite in the area for generations.

    This is a very nice park. The walking trails are wide and accessible, varied and rambling. It's not 5 miles of trails but it's a superbly enjoyable walk with enough options and scenery to be refreshing on each visit. The hillside has been a sledding favorite in the area for generations. In summer, a bench on the grass overlooking to the Bristol hills makes for a fine meditative spot. Across the ample parking lot from the bocce courts, there is one large pavilion between the playground and public restrooms. A space you can most often expect to share with others, but never crowded (except during sledding season).

    As a spectator at a cross country race, I can say that this park is more spectator friendly than most other Monroe County sports complexes. Easy parking. Rest rooms well located. Park condition was good for the runners.

    Nice wide well maintained trails. No really long hikes, but a pretty place for a walk.

    Great and local park to walk through. There is at the top of the hill a trail going through the woods. I've seen a number of people enjoying walking their dog (on a leash). And a pavilion for picnics. One of my favorite places to walk to

    Lovely park with a small trail, basket ball courts, fields, playground etc. It was nice and quiet on a Sunday, I just wish there was a map at the trail entrance
