It’s beautiful through out the season. Very scenic and good for photo shoots, it’s got beautiful woods, urban graphite by the train tracks, and a great view of lake Rockwell. There’s multiple different trails and paths inside, and the portage hike and bike trail runs straight through it.
Numerous trails and connections to explore and get lost in! ...although if you're not paying attention and/or not familiar with the area, you might *actually* get a little lost:) You won't stray off a trail unless you really try, however you might end up making more circles, or cutting off a section you wanted to do, simply for the lack of clear signage in a couple spots. There definitely are some crossings that have signs, but it might be time to comb through the park and add/update.
Kind of a bummer that folks can't enjoy being on the water (no trespassing signs and fencing all around), but it's still beautiful! Plenty of natural (unpaved) trails to walk or run, but beware of mosquitoes in the summer- you've been warned! Additionally, the park is adjacent to the paved hike & bike trail, so that is an option as well.
Been here in spring and fall. Summer was a little buggy. Has a deep woods feel to the trail. Only did outer loop of park. Hopefully these pics will help get an idea of the place.
I love Towner's - what a wonderful place with a plethora of trails! Easily marked, maps throughout... Great views and a huge parking lot. Plenty of places to stop and have lunch!
Really nice little park, didn't explore too much but the views were pretty nice and the trails pretty solid. There were some very narrow trails, and a few roots and big rocks in the trail here and there, but overall pretty relaxed. Beckwiths Orchard Cider Mill was pretty close, so that's a great stop for after. : )
