The landfill-converted-to-mountain park is tons of fun for training , playing with the kids or just sitting and enjoying the scenery. Careful not to be caught there after dark or you will be ticketed!

Great place to let the kids play & lose their minds. Plenty of parking & kids all ages will have fun.

Awesome place to train . The outside perimeter trail is 1.95 mi, the lake trail is 1.45 mi, & the trail around the mountain is 1.3 mi. Have fun!

This 60-foot-high peak is pure, repurposed garbage. In the 1970s, this former landfill became one of the first in America to be reclaimed for recreational use. (From Aerial America) Read more
