Hillside Park

Hillside Park is a tucked away green space located in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio. Situated above Columbia Parkway, this park offers visitors a scenic overlook with beautiful views of the Ohio River.

The park's history dates back to the early days of Cincinnati's park system, which was founded on the 1907 plan "A Park System for the City of Cincinnati" by landscape architect George E. Kessler. While the exact date of Hillside Park's establishment is not specified, it has been a part of the city's recreational landscape for many decades.

One of the park's notable features is its commanding city view, which can be enjoyed from the overlook near the end of Ohio Avenue. This vantage point allows visitors to take in panoramic vistas of Cincinnati's urban landscape and the river valley below.

Hillside Park provides a serene environment for local residents and visitors alike, offering a respite from the bustle of city life. Its hillside location contributes to the unique topography of Cincinnati, which is known for its scenic hills and overlooks.
