This is a beautiful and peaceful park to spend a day or some hours. It is clean, safe, and calm. You will find here plenty of benches, pick nick tables, several kids’ playgrounds, a public restroom. Two overview decks open in front of your eyes beautiful views of the surroundings. If you are lucky, while strolling in the park, you might see rabbits, squirrels and hear a lot of birdies. The place was not crowded, however, I visited on Tuesday afternoon. Several large parkings are available in the area. I met some couples, parents with kids, dog owners and single hikers. I followed the “white” path, which went through the forest, it took me around an hour. The path was clean and not very steep, suitable for beginners. You find the map of the paths on the park’s website. Overall, this is a beautiful place if you want to do physical activity in nature or generally rest from city noises, people, cars, etc., however, if you are a tourist and seeking something spectacular, may be you should pick another place.

A great place for mountain biking or hiking. Decent facilities and there are a lot of pavilions you can rent. They recently added a paved path that you can hike between the two major parking lots serving the park. When you are out on the trails keep an eye (and ear) out for mountain bikers. I've never had a problem as a hiker or a biker, but just be mindful they are out there. Most, if not all, are very deferential to hikers. They also have a padded play ground and a "natural" playground (think fallen trees that you use as a balance beam, sand pit, etc) that is really good for kids and remote control crawlers!

Great for a hike or mountain bike ride. The trails range from the gravel fitness trail which is relatively flat to super rocky, steep black diamond trails. You can make your journey as short or long as you want. There's a couple overlooks which are nice stopping points. For a great mountain biking trail, Go all the way to the rear gravel parking lot and take the fitness trail number one. That will become Trail number two. This will fork, head right. You will pass an overlook, hug the left side of the park and follow the trail. Avoid 6P at all costs - unkempt, washed out, mud, leaves, downed trees, etc.

Only been here once or twice in the summer. Winter, they have a great Christmas light display and activity. The lights were fun because you can tell that they have been acquired over the decades. Bigger incandescent light strings, smaller incandescent light string, LED lights . . . Pavilions have a fire places going to warm up by, coco, trains. Easy walking, not sure about wheelchair accessibility but it might be a go. Park Rangers are around to help if needed, pleasant and knowledgable.

Great place to get into hiking if you are new to it. There is a mile long main gravel trail with a number of marked smaller trails branching off from it. Beautiful views from the power lines. It does not have the most challenging of trails - partly because it’s on the top of the mountains. If you want to introduce yourself to hiking in a managed space this is a great place to start though I’d recommend taking a picture of the trail map before you go as it can get a bit confusing.

My favorite MTB trails in York! And great hiking too. Be careful on your drive in and out, there are often deer along the road.
