• Hike or bike our more than five miles of trails connecting the property from Park Avenue to Half Day Road and to the park’s major features, the Recreation Center, Highland Park Golf Learning Center, and River’s Edge Mini Golf

Conversion of the site from its historical use as a golf course began in November 2020. Today, The Preserve of Highland Park celebrates nature and our place in it. The unique 100+ acre property was designed to take advantage of the interesting golf-related topography and includes green lawns, nature-based play areas, specialized native gardens, restored woodlands, and walking and biking trails that connect neighborhoods and downtown Highland Park, and regional biking trails. Visitors can immerse themselves in the sights, sounds, and experiences of nature and outdoor play.
