First off, the view is breathtaking! With the smoke reducing a bit of the horizon view, you still get a great overlook of the city. Grass and the playground are very well kept and clean. However there is graffiti and trash on and around the rocks. A lot of teenagers frequent this place, so Id assume some bad apples decide to ruin it for the rest of us.

A short drive from downtown. This park has amazing views of the valley. Sunsets are especially impressive.

Like this park. Beautiful views and nice walking path and grassy areas. Small park but still fun for a toddler. Great for kites as it can be windy.

Love this quiet park to walk my dog in. Usually some rabbits for him to chase. Like this park as my dog is always leashed and can be aggressive with other dogs. A good alternative to a bigger park to take my pup too.

Great Place to bring the family BBQ and let the little ones run around until there tired. City view is absolutely amazing. This wasy Nephews favorite place before he passed RIP Francis Hunt Im really fortunate to have been shown this park and for me it is refreshing to come up here and enjoy Reno and the City Views

See all of Reno from a height! One of Reno’s good vantage points. There are a few places with better views but this one is peaceful and never crowded. Nice to walk around, play a little ball or picnic. It was always a nice and quiet experience for us.

Reno, Nevada.An amazing place on top of a hill to see the Reno skyline and adjacent landscape.Your welcome~!This park has a small parking lot w/ some street parking available.Also has a playground, benches to experience the sunset or sunrise.Note on sunrise: The sun is extremely bright at early mornings.Weather was cold in June (around 36 degrees or 2 degrees C) and the elevation w/ brightness can leave you sunburned so be cautious of this.Located in NE Reno near Hwy 395 & Hwy 659.Basically, the hill accompanying the University of Nevada Reno.Los Angeles is appx 450 miles south.Salt Lake City is appx 500 miles east.Sacramento is appx 100 miles west.Boise is appx 430 miles north.Travel safely my friends.@cigarcpa

I live by the park by the park this park was beautiful when I first moved here it still is beautiful but all the trashy people that come up here and bring their booze and drugs up here at night race down the street race down the street wake me up at night have parties till 3 and 4 at night where I have to call the police almost every Saturday and Friday make this beautiful Park and ugly place I want my beautiful Park back the that I pay $120 a month for my homeowners association fees to have to pick up trash every day in my front yard because people sit in front of my house and drink a 12-pack and drop beers in front of my home no this is not a beautiful Park anymore its a trashy Park that brings lowlifes to my area they have no consideration for other people that live in the area that pay for homeowners association and mortgages lowlifes have to ruin my beautiful home they cant pick up their trash because theyre too lazy and then I have to go to the park and see people having sex at 5:30 in the morning while Im walking my dog yes this was a beautiful part but no more the police should be up here at least weekend every weekend they would get a kids DUIs every night but no you call the cops and they show up but they just drive away after that they can give it to you I doubt every single night if they wanted to just a concerned citizen that wishes there was cameras in this park so they can catch all these lowlifes ruining the beautiful we once had if you want to drink drink at a bar

This was our third year coming to this park for the 4th of July. The weather was perfect. The view from the mountain top is a perfect way to see all the fireworks displays from The Nugget Casino, the Ballpark, and a few other random displays as well. All in all, it was a great night!
