Tourist attraction Park

👍👍 Nice place to sit and relax. Great view of the city down below. Parking is ample on most days and there are benches at the far end of the lot. There is a retaining wall that you can sit on, kids will be climbing up and down guaranteed. There is a path downhill by the benches and grassy area. Awesome...

    Aside from a few trees in the way, this is 10/10 perfect spot to watch a thunderstorm. Usually empty so you can maneuver your car however you need to to get the best spot. Done it a few times, so enjoyable. Otherwise it's a nice place, great view, I don't think I've ever seen parking even 1/2 full.

    Great view of the city (from 100 feet above the hill on a bad day)

    If u are looking for an awesome view of the area this is one of the best places to find it. It is also a great place to go for a challenging walk or run. If u can handle big hills that is. And yes kids there is a playground up top of the hill. Not too far from parking. Which there is usually always plenty of. There is also a path to the canal and the big locks. Its also one of the best places in all of peterborough to go tobogganing and GT snow racing in the winter. Now with that in mind please be CAREFUL when sledding here. As the hill is VERY STEEP, LONG AND THERE IS A FENCE BEFORE THE ROAD AT THE END. I would recommend you yous something with steering and MOST IMPORTANTLY BREAKS. None wants to see kids hurt while sledding. On top of all of that the Peterborough Museum is also right in the park pretty much. I hope this helps with anything u may have been wanting to know.

    This is a very nice place to visit.. There is lots to see.. All of the local area's visible from this park..as it sits high above the surrounding landscapes.. A childrens park is close.. A museum is close..

    Always a great time. Park is kept pretty clean, and the washrooms are almost always open.
