Clifford Park

I like this little park! It seems like it has a perfect sledding hill but I haven't tried it. 😁 Lots of people walk dogs here. There are some birds to look at and bats come out at dusk to eat bugs. There's some kind of ruined old building and a creepy mansion nearby. In the woods there is a strange little fountain. An area of the field is cordoned off, I guess to let plants grow? Not sure.

Nice oasis not far from where I live. Never a lot of people most of the time it's just me walking or sitting and meditating.

Clifford Park, part of the Wissahickon Valley Park in Philadelphia, is steeped in history and natural beauty. The park is named after George Clifford Thomas, an investment banker and philanthropist whose 1869 mansion still stands within its bounds. Upon his death in 1907, Thomas’s estate was donated to Fairmount Park, enriching the city’s green spaces. Today, Clifford Park is a testament to Philadelphia’s dedication to preserving its historical landmarks while providing residents and visitors with a peaceful retreat into nature.

This isn't a dog park, it's just some trails and a field where you can walk your leashed dog. There is no fence, and part of it runs along the very busy and dangerous Lincoln Drive. There's also a stream that runs thru it that has some kind of industrial pollution situation on-going-- it's bright orange and is staining anything nearby orange.

Nice area with wild grass and a few trails to walk your dog on. There's a nice half hour loop around the Thomas mansion. You pick the trail up from the field down the hill to the left.
