Highfield Discovery Garden

We visited in the “cool season” so tickets were a real bargain at just $3.50 each. That said, it’s well worth the normal admission of $7. The kids loved the treehouse and the interactive program where they got to touch a snake and ask a naturalist all their questions. The miniature train was a favorite too.

Cool pay to visit park and discovery center. The play structure is shaped like a troll with hidden passages and tree houses. There is also a garden workshop with local animals (small snakes, turtle, rabbit, and insects) alone with arts & crafts. Lots of short hiking trails.

So happy we found this place! It was so much fun for my daughters (ages ranging from 6-15) Nice stop during our trip to Cincinnati. We will be back!

This was our first visit and I am blown away by how magical and beautiful this place is! I felt like I was in a little secret fairy garden! I loved it just as much as the kids did! (Ages 9, 7, 5 and 1) I can not wait to come back and explore more!! -PLENTY of parking -Only $6 per person -Bathrooms are very nice! -We spent about 2 1/2 hours here, honestly could’ve done longer! -There are scavenger hunts in the fairy mailboxes -They have crafts scheduled at certain times! (Our craft was making snakes out of paper plates and the kids even got to meet a snake named Disco!)

Its a cute little place just not sure it was worth the drive or money. Our kids loved it though! There's a nice play area for young kids. A small fish pond beside the play area, which is so cute. Our boys (3 & 9) loved the pond at the bottom of the hill, off of the walking path. There was a big snapping turtle, some smaller turtles and tons of frogs and tadpoles! It was a neat place to see but not sure we will be back unless we happen to be in the neighborhood.
