Black Hill Discovery Center

This is such a nice escape to come to with the kids. They have these super neat rain barrel drums out from which my son's loves to play on when we come. They have a sandbox area with toys too. There's some lovely composite chair seating out front that's great to sit and have coffee or watch the kids play.

The Black Hill Regional Park is a beautiful public park filled with woodlands, playgrounds, picnic shelters, and a lake. There are boats available and plenty of space for any activity. There is an educational garden shed complete with green roof, rain barrels, and tools for everyone to try gardening. There are flower beds to water with little watering cans, and a digging space for girls and boys to get into earth. Benches are scattered throughout the space do one can have a restful sit watching butterflies or the birds over the water. Dogs are welcome and a dog park is available to play off leash. Get outside and find your space!

Fun for a winter or rainy day! My husband and I brought our kids (4 and 6) here for a little indoor fun and they enjoyed the activities. Entry is free and there is plenty of parking.

What a wonderful park! Playground is great for all ages. Loved the infant swings & so did my little one. Restrooms are clean. Wish we would have discovered the park sooner. Would have spent a ton of time here over the summer. There's parks,trials, boat rentals, dog park.. you name it! And you can't beat the beautiful views. Such a stunning place

Dog Exercise Area was a large fenced in area with benches, but we were the only dog there. We hike the dirt path of Hamilton Trail. This trail has bridges, river, and trees everywhere for a shaded path. It was great to take a break from work and enjoy a hike day. We brought a picnic and our dogs. We also saw many animals at the lake.

Love this place. Not too crowded but even when there are a good number of people around there is plenty of parking. They have kayaks and paddle boards and more to take out on the lake. The lake is enormous and you have pretty decent visibility into the water too so you can see some fish and turtles in the water. They have both paved and dirt trails that ramble through the park. There is a good amount of wildlife around too--just on a short walk today I saw a ground hog, fox, several Chipmunks, rabbit and deer. I don't believe there is a fee to enter either.

Great place to bird watch. There is a telescope to look across the lake. Several small gardens, seating, and a balcony that wraps around the building, allowing you to take in different views. Kid friendly, and several things geared just towards children. Lots of paved and smooth unpaved trails near the water, perfect for walking a calm dog.

Beautifully and quiet place to visit with your friends and family members ❤️ 💕 😊 . I love it 😀 😍 💯% recommended
