Cobbs Hill Park

Absolutely beautiful! Hiking trails, baseball, basketball, lit tennis courts, playground, dog parks, and so much more. There's at least 1 EV charger that I saw. The reservoir area is a great walk/run too! We had a great hike!

It's a gorgeous park with lots of trails, tennis courts, baseball diamonds, a walking loop around the fresh water reservoir (.69 miles a lap and a wonderful spot to walk your dog), and paths for bicycling if you wish. It has incredibly beautiful panoramic views of the City of Rochester and I would highly recommend visiting, even if you only have a few minutes. If you want to park by the baseball diamonds or tennis courts, or hike the hill to the reservoir, the Culver/Norris entrance is the one for you. There is street parking was well as a generous parking lot near the tennis courts you can walk around to access the path to the top of the hill for the walking loop. If you don't want to make the hill trek, the park entrance from Highland/Monroe is the one for you. There is a driving path all the way to the top, with lots of available parking. There are some handicapped spaces next to the radio tower building at the top of the hill and it's a short easy walk to the benches to rest and soak in the views of the city. I can't say enough about how beautiful those views are; and it's a perfect spot for a picnic or spontaneous announcement. ☺️ Don't forget to check out the architecture on the Cobbs Hill Water Works building at the top of the stairs. Built in 1908, it has lion sculpture heads, Greek key patterns carved into the stone, and other little architecture presents that show the beauty of the era.

This place is great for all kinds of stuff from walking to biking to dog walks to sledding. Just be a good human and keep it clean and nice. The sledding is outrageously fun and there are a variety of steepness grades to choose from.

If you’re looking for a location to watch a beautiful sunset behind the Rochester city skyline, this is it! It’s a cool place to walk around the reservoir or to just sit and relax on a bench and enjoy the scenery. This is also a great place to take senior pictures and/or wedding photos.

The area we were at was clean and plenty of parking was available. Parking lot was cleared of snow. Playgrounds and restrooms were visible but we did not use.
