Beautiful views of the city of El Paso and Mexico. The park is located high on a hill, and lies alongside a very nice neighborhood. Easy walking paths with plenty of parking.

Beautiful park. It’s a nice place to go and enjoy a small park without many distractions. Although it’s not scenic drive, you are able to see far out into the city. The most enjoyable time to to go (im my humble opinion) is 30-60 minutes before sunset.

Great view. If youre tired of scenic or trans mountain this is a great option. Depending on the day parking might be full.

This is a very cute little park with amazing views of the city. Since it is on a cliff there are amazing views of the Franklins, downtown, and the UTEP area. When we were there all the plants were in bloom so it was more beautiful.There is a very short wall so be careful. Theres a nasty drop on nearly all sides, so it may not be the best place for small children.

This park is decent, much smaller than you woukd expect. But there is a way to walk down to the Tom Lea Lower park from it. There seems to be an issue with feral cats at the upper parks so be aware of that if you have dogs, as the cats pretty much are all over the laek, complete with signs saying not to feed the feral animals.The lower oark has a large jungle gum for kids, and is bigger. I enjoyed the walk from one to the other over all. It is a populated area.

Very nice small park on the other side of scenic drive but boy do the trash cans stink horribly even in the winter! They are obviously not cleaned!

Review №57

Is small and pretty, but they never tell you when is reserved for an event. Drive all the the way there just to get kicked out, they need to have designated areas.

The pigs sneak up at you around 9PM with the intention of catching you. They come up with their lights off and sneak up on you towards the side glowing the flashlights at you. This has happened several times to me and as well to my friends that go there. Friends of their friends have also complain on how they go up to you.

This park used to be kind of gross when I was younger. I remember it being mostly dirt and cacti. However, Ive recently been to it a couple times and it really has grown more lovely. theres grass and trees, and best of all an AMAZING view of downtown El Paso. This is definitely a great spot.

I am a regular at this park and I love it. The scenery is gorgeous! Convenience store right next to you, its a dream. Only downside of the park is that its surrounded by heavier trafficking streets. The streets dont pose much of a problem but it can be difficult to cross streets without a cross walk

Review №95

This is a great place to take quinceañera photos or wedding photos because all El Paso is just desert so there isn’t a decent park in all of El Paso and at least this has a tree. Because wear I come from a “park” is lots of grass a big forest and lots of lakes and this is disappointing it’s just like 2 trees and a small patch of grass. But 3 stars for effort since this a. Desert and it’s hard for stuff to grow. I guess. like for real no park in El Paso with lots of trees and grass??????

Ro
Review №96

Very well maintained and equipped. The views you get are, in my opinion, better than from scenic drive overlook. Moreover, the scenic drive overlook is always super crowded and has very little parking space. Instead, this park offers plenty of parking and space to walk around and take great pictures.
