Fantastic Hiking

One of the parks often cited as the favorite of most city residents is Bald Hill. the park offers numerous trails which include 1.5 mile multi-modal path along the base of the hill and several miles of dirt and gravel foot trails that circle and climb to the summit of the hill, as well as connect to the Mulkey Creek trail and Fitton Green Natural Area. These trails pass through numerous nature habitats ranging from marshlands to forest.

For those who don’t feel like making the trip to the top, or need a relaxing sit down spot after the hike, there is an old restored barn that provides shade at the base of the hill. Horseback riding and bicycling are permitted on seasonally designated trails. A few memorial benches allow guests the opportunity to rest and enjoy the beautiful vistas of nearby farms and the hills beyond. An area near the barn is designated as an off-leash dog area.
