Great little park to hike in and on a clear day you have an awesome view of the mountains and lake Champlain.

Beautiful little park with just enough amenities and trails for a fun day in the park. The tower is a beautiful attraction, and the park looked well maintained in all areas except for the tower itself which had a large amount of broken glass at the base.

Beautiful view if you go up tower. Also the tall trees and pathways make a nice nature escape close to the big city.

Great views, short hike. Signs could be better to guide to tower top. Go straight up hill from parking to enter easier paths up! We went left and up a cliff! A little scary, but a good adventure

Nice short walk to a nice view of Burlington. As long as you dont mind a few steep hills and climbing some stairs, then its definitely worth it. Plenty of parking at the park too. You can also get to this via the Burlington bike path that runs through the Ethan Allen park, although signage for the bike path is poor at best and non-existent in many places.

One of the best places to watch the sun set over Lake Champlain. I love going when the leaves are changing because the view of the lake and all that colorful foliage are so beautiful. Just be sure to check what hours the door is unlocked if you want go to the top of the tower.

This is a great short hike with amazing views of the area from a beautiful historic tower. I believe the tower is locked at night and in the winter but the surrounding park is beautiful year round. Plenty of parking and not too far from the Burlington bike path.

The tower is a nice short easy walk/hike to take the whole family on and see a view of Burlington and the lake that is super unique. Worth your time definitely.

Very cool restored tower with 360 degree views including Lake Champlain AND the Green Mountains! Its on your left off the bike path when you take the Ethan Allen Park entrance and a short hike up to the tower. Gets very buggy in the summer so make sure you wear bug spray.
