Our favorite park! This park offers 11 acres of activities. You can hike, mountain bike, trail run, search for wildlife, play on the playground, lay under a tree, play tennis, volleyball or have a party (with beer). Challenge yourself by hiking up the chute, or the easier way around the side and see the incredible view of Les Bois.

Beautiful park located just off the Greenbelt. Take the easy pathway around the park and choose from the long (1mile) walk or the short (1/2 mile) hike. This park stretches into Ann Morrison park which stretches into Julia Davis Park.

James Castle was an uniquely gifted artist. He crafted with scraps from his home and used coal from the fire to draw. His perspective on the world is particularly interesting. This museum is free all the time!
