It is a nice park. I was looking for an actual view of the Capitol but there were some construction barriers up on some of the parking areas, so Im not even sure if a view exists, but a walk found me a spot on the river and if youre into mountain biking it looks like there are some decent trails here.

This is a great mountain bike trail system maintained by awesome volunteers. You can go ride for 5 minutes at the pump track or 5 hours all over park. There is something for pretty much every skill level. Highly recommend.

Capitol View Park has great mountain biking trails. They have some good obstacles in certain places also. There are several miles of trials so you will not get bored quickly. If you keep looking, you’ll probably find some kind of hidden away. So just keep looking and riding. It’s a good time. It’s well worth the trip from Lexington to get there. I’ve enjoyed it every time I’ve gone. I’ve meet nice people who were also mountain biking.

Our favorite park to mountain bike! Its close to home and easy enough for beginners but challenging enough for more experienced riders. The trails are beautiful and very well-maintained. This was the first trail we ever rode on as a family and its still our favorite.

A hidden gem in Frankfort. There isnt a swing set but its a beautiful walking/biking trail right along the Kentucky River. There are great views the entire length of the park. I highly recommend checking it out.

The mountain bike trail layout is challenging to follow. Lots of crisscrossing trails with no arrows. I would not recommend riding this trail without a Local to show you around. Even a GPS map did not help.
