Beautiful views, great hiking trails, all the way to a not so secret swimming lagoon at the bottom. Worth the trip more »

The view is nice but the noise coming from the sawmill is so loud to enjoy the park. And it seems the park and mountain are for dogs as the most of dogs are unleashed even the big and scary looking dogs. I guess the dogs are tamed for the owners but should I take chance for the accidential event?

Best view of the city! Drive up if you have trouble walking steep paths, or walk all the way to the top if you have an hour to spare (round-trip). Paul's tomb is another option if you have some time on your hands. There's less of an incline but it's a nice long walk so you still get a good workout. There's even lake access at the end of the Paul's Tomb walk, and bathrooms along the way. Make sure you pack lots of water for either hike, as there's nowhere to get a water top up along the way.

Great place for a summer hike, the initial incline is quite steep but their is road access if you'd rather not hike it. The paul's tomb trail is by far my favourite .

Such a great place and we're lucky to have such a beautiful park so close to downtown.
