Forest Hills Park Lofty oak trees and a magnificent view
of Carter's Mountain highlight the 7.35
acres of rolling land which make up
this popular park, which was originally
known as Forest Park. Today there are
extensively developed activity areas
for individuals of all ages. A Little
League baseball field and a concession
stand lie at the lowest end of the site
near the paved parking area. On the
hillside slopes nearby are a number of
picnic facilities, including a picnic
shelter and outdoor grills. On the
promontory ridge is an abundance of
playground equipment, including slides,
swing sets, a merry-go-round, animal
rockers, and a horseshoe pit. At the
head of the valley is a large flat area
containing two full basketball courts
and two wading pools with a swing set.
Dogs must be leashed and under control at all times. The park is open 6AM to 9PM.
