Northeast River Valley Park — Attraction in Horse Hill

Love this park. The main area has plenty of parking and for groups and/or a family looking for a hang, it's nice with amenities you would expect (washrooms, picnic tables, fire pit, ponds, kids play area, etc.). The covered bridges are cute. Saw a group doing family pics there. But beyond that, it's the location. The park is linked and has access to the trail that run along the river both north and south.
