Great park offering catch and release fishing, a North Face Rock Climbing installation and walking paths with wheelchair and stroller accessibility. Playground, basketball court and more just across the street.A good place to stop by for a socially distanced picnic with a nice view of the city skyline!

This is one of my favorite parks i like to go. Theres like a mountain were you can relax and has a really beautiful view towards the towers. I really reccommend there its a really nice place to hang around with and relax. It has a little lake and it has trails where you could walk in.

I love, love this local park! It’s not too crowded to jog in. Their paths, stairs and bridge make this park unique and a joy to visit. Nog to mention the view of our beautiful city!! I also like their tennis courts. They have 4 (or 5), and although it’s seldom they they are unoccupied, 3/5 times were able to catch a game after 5 pm.

I enjoy taking my daily walk or jog here. To up the ante on my walks, I have the choice of walking up and down the hill or using the pavement inclines. On nice, weather-permitting, sunny days I can just sit on top of the hill and look over Halsted Street or watch the geese and ducks take a dip in the pond.

Beautiful park! With excitement layered views of wildflowers, city and a small lake pond with nature all around dragonflies birds ducks and walkways that take you out and over the water beautiful rock seating area and overviews.

Lovely place. For nature encounter. Perfect place. Love it

Nice place to get your steps in, not too far from Halsted Orange Line stop. Great view of the city.

Yes! Yes! Yes!Next door to McGuane Park, nestled into the fabric of the neighborhood. This is a getaway, when you have 20 minutes or 2 hours. A mini arboretum, a faux botanical garden, a semi nature escape. This place offers excitement for each of your senses. Theres always people around, but its never crowded.You can fly a kite, take a hike, fish, walk, or gaze. Definitely a place to exhale.

Was here visiting Chicago with family today, looking for something to do and someplace to go. Found Golden State Park! What a great place! Its very big, and drivable, walkable, full of easy trails, bison to view, carousel that might be open again one day, beautiful Grove of trees with paths, lots of green areas! Free! I will definitely come back here again. Very soothing and clean.

Beautiful park in a great location, nothing quite like it around this area. Nice and clean place for a easy walk. The scenery is nice and the park is still relatively new

Great for a quick walk or to relax and see the city lights & views.

This is such an amazing city park. Probably one of the best in the city, if not the best. Great place to walk, watch the sunset, or sunrise, fish, and enjoy nature in this concrete jungle, we call home. Beautiful views, clean, unique, and well maintained.

Great spot for a calm stroll along the trails. See a little bit of nature and the city skyline.

Very well maintained. I love sitting up on the hill with my boyfriend & looking up at the city lights. :)

Beautiful view of the skyline, a duck pond, nice trail thats family friend and room for children to run around. Its the closest youll get to hiking with elevation that youll get in the middle of the city. Beautiful at sunrise and sunset.

This is a good place if you just want to walk. It also has a workout station with 3 or 4 exercises. The stone monument is great for pictures. There is a small lake. The miniprairie/nature preserve decor gives a great nature inside the city feeling to it. The small hill/plateau really works the legs, plus it gives a great 360 degree view of the neighborhood and downtown. All around a nice quiet place to get a low exertion workout.

Spacious park with different small walking paths. Small fishing pond for catch and release. A good place for a workout.

This park is so beautiful, but surprisingly not many people know about it. Its not like any other park in this city, so its definitely worth the trip.

A beautiful nature path between bridgeport and Chinatown.

A long walk in a park. With a beautiful light seen of the loop. With huge wonderful sculpture of stones. A balcony of blue fish below your feet. Its so romantic, and playful. Lot of running or walking. Its a semi forrest in a big city. Please no bikes or dogs allowed. So, have fun.

I love it. Its so nice to go walking here in the early morning or late evening. The breeze always seems to hit the park just right and even though theres always people, it some how always feels calm and serene.

Nice short trails, small hills, and a lake with a view. Its a good park to hangout within the Chicago city limits.

The park has a nice walking path for exercise or casual walk.

Very nice park . Hilltop views of downtown . Fishing available in old quarry. Feed the ducks. Nice trails

Fun park, not too many people, everyone doing a good job of social distancing. Great view of the city.

It was so nice and comforting! Very clean! I loved the water fall and there was a turtle family that was the highlight of our adventure

Lively park! And its clean. You get a nice view of the downtown area from a far.

What a gem. This is a lovely serene spot in the city. Fishing, running, waking, and views of the skyline. There are spots in the small park that make you forget youre in the city. Beautiful.

Clean and it has parking. It has a nice rock garden and theres a playground for children.

Pretty decent park to do some running or exercise in. Nice incline/declines on the big hill.

Very good place to walk around for fresh air. Very enjoyable to feed the fish, ducks, and geese at the pond.

Park is always well kept. Great for exercising and a place to take a walk. A lot different than any other parks Ive been to before.

The place is lovely. It looks like an Asian community. An Asian didnt want to talk on the same sidewalk pass me...she walked in the street and back into the sidewalk.... Other than that...the place is beautiful.

Beautiful view. Plenty of space for people to use social distancing. Kids loved rolling down the hills.

So much to do and see here. You can have Henry C. Palmisano Nature Parke around in a boat, rent a bike and ride around in the park, play tennis or frisbee, walk the many gardens, look for the waterfall, catch a polo match. Really a neat must stop if you are in san fran

Large open space with two hills and a quarry that is now a fishing hole. A good family gathering / picnic place. Nice views of the Chicago skyline too. Well maintained and very clean park.

For some, it has a nickname La Loma.

Great nature-y space in middle of Bridgeport.

Very good and healthy to walk around

Great place to relax and get a bit of nature in the city. The slow walk up the hill (or the informal shortcut on the east side) leads to impressive views on the city skyline. The park also features a great reservoir stocked with fish on the west side. Good way to spend 20-40 minutes and its free.

Walkable, family friendly park, that extends down to the water and up to a hilltop view of skyline. Great space to meet friends, catch a breeze, watch the stars or get a family photo. Lots of street parking.

Nice park, but I hate the trash. There were bottles of beer everywhere which turns it off a bit, but overall the view is amazing. Its a great place to jog or just walk with the family.

Lots of construction around here as of 06/10/20. Nice place to take a walk and run. Theres a playground, pull up bars, a pond, a hill for kites, nice slope for snow or mud sledding, and much more for the family or anyone really.

Beatiful getaway in the middle of the city. You would never know this place existed. Fishing and hiking with exercise stations.

This is a wonderful place to sit and read, relax and enjoy our city view. People have room for spacing and they respect each others space. it.

Back to basics, beautiful nature park, took some beautiful pictures with the Willis tower in the background.

Such an amazing park with a cool view and quarry that’s been converted into a pond! Highly recommended for picnicking and exercising.

Unique park nothing like it in Chicago. Geat views

Nice view of downtown, with big Plain field to sit down on and enjoy the breeze.

Beautiful place to walk around

Peaceful, relaxing spot. A beautiful place in the middle of the city

Beautiful place to walk. Amazing place to just be outside.

Great park to go for a walk and look at butterflies and other bugs, wild flowers and fish

Is this the only hill in the city? Great views form at the top. The best place to go for a stroll for many miles around.

Calm place nice sky line view of city. Able to view stars and moon when weather permits.

Its a beautiful park with a great view and pretty plants

A beautiful, unique park with a fishing quarry, climbing rocks, and spectacular views.

Gorgeous park with great views! One of my favorite places in the city to take people is the top of the hill in this park, you get an amazing panoramic view of the city, and its free! Great for photography, hanging out, seeing urban wildlife, checking out plants, and/or as a lesser traveled tourist spot if you have out of town guests!

I think this place has magical powers.

I love to take a walk at this park

Very calm..good for long walks

Awesome place to enjoy the outdoors and get some exercise in weather its walking, running, flying a kite, or doing some fishing

Lovely spot in the middle of the city!

Very clean and very calming! Definitely will be coming back.

Good recreation area to walk and enjoy some skyline views

It is nice to have a walk after dinner.

Went for a walk with my family, beautiful nature oasis in the middle of a busy city. The views were great. Activities for all ages: hiking, biking, rock climbing, exercise bars, sledding, fishing, playground across the street

Great place to meditate and connect with your Inner Being with ease and grace

Very beautiful place to take a nature walk

Best place for a king size steak sandwich with mozzarella cheese

A neighborhood gem. Unparalleled skyline views. This old limestone quarry, has fishing, walking trails, and a stream. Bus stops at both ends. 1 block to the orange line.

Hidden city gem.

Great place for a walk and the view of the city is magnificent.take a walk and enjoy nature.

Love this park! Some of the best views and there’s a great historic audio tour you can find on the parks website

Beautiful area to fish in the city.

Beautiful scenery and great place to walk and run or have a nice picnic!

People are doing the best they can with social distancing, so its easy to spot THAT PERSON. Pro Tip: Dont be that person.

Beautiful landscapes with a great view of the Chicago skyline.

Great spot, great for walking or a picnic

Great place for family fun

Nice little park set amidst a quarry

Really cool good views

Lovely park...sadly no more sledding allowed:(

Beautiful park with different views to choose from

We are going there almost every day.

The view of downtown is very visible and good for photos

What a beautiful place to enjoy nature and work out!!!

This is the perfect park to fly a kite. Plenty of open space to get started, but the biggest benefit, is the giant hill like nature of the park. Once you get up on top of the hill, the wind blows much stronger which helps keep the kite aloft for longer.

Very beautiful park. Feels like traveling back in time when Chicago was prairie land.

This is a great park to get nice views of the Chicago skyline and see native prairie plants. I have even seen a snowy owl in the winter time. A nice place to relax, take a walk or a jog, or fly a kite! This space is a true asset to the community.

Amazing hidden gem in the city.

Beautiful place to walk and enjoy nature. Sadly theres usually a good amount of littering here.

Peaceful place to exercise or just relax

We go sledding there every time it snows kids love it

Clean and peaceful during the day!

Clean, safe, family oriented, hidden little treasure... perfect little hills for working out. Great view of Chicago skyline at night. Perfect for picnics.

My fiance & I bring our son and niece here to fish. They always have a blast. Most of the fish they catch are blue gill but occasionally they catch a catfish or large-mouth bass. This Park also has trails to walk, a huge hill to climb up and roll down or go sledding down in the winter. There is a sanctuary for birds and bugs...butterflies especially. Altogether we always have a fabulous time here & I recommend anyone to bring their families or to go by themselves. It will be fun either way.

The geese there really enjoy taco bells diablo chips

Great spot to enjoy the sun

Good place to go for walk with family. Very scenic place.
