Red Mountain Park

Coming from out of state we were a little disappointed that it hasn't been kept up. The hiking was fun and the historical sites are decent when the signs are provided to explain what they are. I did read the zipline was closed prior to visiting but was not expecting it to be falling apart and with no hopes to reopen.

Wonderful Dog Park with plenty of shade for your pup and different sections for big dogs,small dogs, and special needs dogs

The perfect alternative to Oak Mountain State Park in case you can't go to that one due to paying for a ticket but that's no big deal, this is the best option. Scenery/Atmosphere: My god is it so gorgeous, the view of Birmingham never gets old, the park usually is pretty old due to the railroad history it used to have and that makes it interesting for people to learn, there are structures too but you probably shouldn't stand or go near it for obvious reasons. Accessibility: They have multiple trails, hiking, mountain biking, even a dog park, the park opens early and closes near evening but I'm sure they increase the time near Spring or something because it's still so cold this time of the year. I really don't know why I haven't been here and reviewed it yet, but here yah go!! 😎

Normally I've always gone to the dog park, but decided to hit the trails with the pups this go around. I did not realize how large of a park this is!!! So many neat spots and info to check out. Loved the rope bridge to the tree house such a beautiful view. 😍 I'm a huge fan of this park! There is a donation box in the entrance that is optional so don't forget to bring some change or a few dollars. It goes a long way to upkeep beautiful public spots!

This park is a little gem. The trails are well maintained, parking is easy, and the views are amazing.
