David Fortier River Park

My husband and I visited this park on a long drive through the country side. It's hidden away off the street right after the historic Olmsted falls downtown. It's kind of hard to spot, but once you see it, make sure to actually drive down and get out and walk around. The views are stunning, the air fresh and the Vista serene. It has the added benefit of being a long ways of the beaten trail so you probably won't have to share your time there with many other visitors. There are beaches, rapids and cascading falls, asking with picnic tables for a midday snack or lunch. Also, there are handicap accessible pathways, but probably they're best utilized in the spring when the grounds are free of mud, snow and debris. If you're ever in search of a way to spend your day in the beautiful outdoors and like a but of a scenic drive, this is definitely a spot to add to your must visit list.
