This park seems most commonly known for it's dog park, playground, and paved trails--all excellent facilities that see plenty of use, but are never overcrowded. There is a nice hiking trail that runs along the Little Miami River as well as an access point to the river that deserves more attention. At this summertime writing, I have only hiked a very small portion of the trail since it was too overgrown to continue with kids in tow. I look forward to a fall or winter hike--especially if the river freezes. Now, that would be neat!
