Finwood Forest Park
Finwood Forest Park offers a natural hiking experience with trails through wooded areas featuring hills, narrow pathways, and a small waterfall. The park is dog-friendly and kid-friendly, making it a pleasant place for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy walking amongst trees and seasonal wildflowers. While there are no benches, swings, or paved paths, visitors appreciate the rustic, natural setting. Parking is available but the entrance is narrow for single cars at a time. The park is more suited for hiking than casual walking and is not easily accessible for those with mobility challenges.

Caution: This is more hiking then walking. I frequently drive by and have never gone to this park near home. Stopped by yesterday planning to check it out and walk a while. It is trails vs. pavement..looking very pretty. Unfortunately, I jumped a small creek and twisted my ankle so couldn’t continue. I’ll wear my hiking boots the next time I go exploring here.
Good walk if you can avoid the poison ivy, horrid smell, or the drunk rednecks peeing on trees everywhere. Found a cool tree though!
I like it because it has no swings for kids or seats to sit. It is just a park to walk amongst the trees. In the fall the autumn leaves can be beautiful. After a decent rain the little falls becomes a “mighty little” water falls. In the spring there are some wildflowers here and there. A nice place as it is.
Great walk. Meets up with park at Burns and Gulf. Waterfall. Bridge. Tunnel. Fun. Not easily accessible for handicap. Large hill to water and paths, narrow pathways and a few rain runs you have to step over.
Has a few nice spots to sit and meditate. But no actual benches. Some of the terrain is a bit narrow. And the parking lot entrance is one car at a time kind of narrow. Good for a short walk/hike, but trails are not always the easiest to follow.
