Miner Hill Trails Park / Tower Hill

Miner Hill Trails Park has walking and hiking trails that encompass 50 acres of scenic wonder revealed along a trail that wanders past five overlooks, through woods and open meadows, and past an old quarry site, to the top of a bluff with a panoramic view of the city and countryside spreading out in the valley below. All trail overlooks are railed. The trails are complete with signs & areas for picnicking. There are six trails to choose from, ranging from 1/5 mile to 4/5 mile distances. Strickland Trail (1/5 mile) begins at the base of Strickland Park, with parking and playground equipment. You can also park and connect with Tower Drive Trail if you follow Court Street East. Here and there along the way, hikers will find resting and picnic spots for a leisurely pause on the trail. Miner Hill Trails Park does not take reservations.
