Crown Hill Lake and Kestrel Pond draw wildlife and their watchers to the area. Crown Hill Park, created in 1979, is a 177-acre park which has been kept in a natural state with minimal development. It is the outgrowth of citizen concern for open space surrounding the lake and for preserving habitat for wildlife. Approximately 6.5 miles of trails are available at Crown Hill Park. Three and a half miles of trails are paved and form two major loops.
Horse trails are available, mainly at the southwest corner of the park.
The nature preserve includes 0.7 mile of trail which is ADA accessible. A one-mile fitness course for the able bodied and disabled is located along the paved trails at the south end of the park beginning near the restroom. Keep to the Right except to turn or pass another person traveling in the same direction. Move to your right when approaching another trail user head-on. Groups on the Trails should not occupy more than half the width of the trail because it impedes other trail users.
