Its a great place been since I was a kid with many things to do! There a lake for fishing. Playground for kids. Next to the park there is a covered picnic area on both sides to have partys or picnics. Nice long concrete walk way into the hills where it meets up with the main hiking trail. Very nice place for a family day or a fishing day!

Its one of Louisvilles beautiful parks. This one is a little more off the beaten path as its huge and furthest from the city. They have wonderful regular trails and more rugged ones. They also have wonderful programs. Perhaps their most well know is the Forest Fest. Would totally recommend all the time.

Youll find the best trails here. This is a gem in our area with a variety of trails to meet the needs of almost everyone. A little planning (look at maps, bring snacks and water) goes a long way before you venture out to the forest, but you wont be disappointed. Visit the gift shop as well!

I absolutely love this forest!! Its so close to where I live and the scenic drives are so nice. Paulys gap, Blevins gap and Scotts gap are gorgeous! Also the horine reservation and Paul Yost Center are great places to go. So many trails to walk on.

The forest is just a beautiful place to take an afternoon ride.The road winds through lush green trees high above the city and has many areas to stop and enjoy the scenery. I recommend the ride to anyone who loves the outdoors and loves to ride.

This place is more massive than you think!!! Its mostly undeveloped and a great place for explorers. Its a wonderful place to see wildlife! Great place for experienced outdoors people or for the young people in the family.

Always have a great time here. So cool to be. This close to the city, and yet, feel like you are completely removed from the hussle and business of everyday life. Go enjoy some fresh air, and take a walk in the woods

The fish not biting was a bummer, but it was the restroom facility by the lake being closed and the treacherous parking lot at the info center that took the stars

We hiked the Orange trail and Red trail yesterday. It was a delight. Spring is in full swing. Lots of beautiful little flowers every where. I will be back.

This is a great place for hiking, learning, fun in the tree tops and many things in between. Weddings would be spectacular with nature as your chapel.

Best nature area in Louisville region within 30 minutes of city center. Great trails for hiking, hills and rolling terrain.

Not a bad place to hold events or outdoor parties. It is nice and provides lots of places to hike as well and is very nice.

Wouldve give it 5 stars except the bathrooms were overly disgusting. And the playground is really small and full sun.

Pretty good selection of trails. Parking can be an issue in the summer on the weekends if you get there past 10 AM
