The host was friendly and welcoming and took time to share the history of this little gem. It has a bonus of great views of downtown and the Capital building from the fort remnants area. Worth a quick visit.
Lovely hiking trails that overlook Buffalo Trace Distillery and downtown Frankford. The bird blind was fun way to see some birds.
Love Fort Hill ever since I was a kid. The overlook of downtown is beautiful. Great place to run. The staff is very friendly as well.
Good:- fantastic views of downtown Frankfort- great historic vibes with original berms and recreated shelters- nice pathsCautions:- limited parking and really tucked awayThe lookout views were the main draw for me. While the views did not disappoint, the place overall isnt very memorable. If passing through town, I dont know that its a must-see park.
Beautiful place specialy this time of year
Its a great place to get away
Cool place in Kentucky history and free to visit.
Great place to hike and the guides at the cabin werre terrific!
We only walked one of the trails. I believe there are more. Theres a house from the 1800s you can go in some times and the guide tells you about life in the past and the civil war in Frankfort. When another group of people came in our guide simply turned away from us and started guiding them. We guess our tour was over. Odd guy. Theres a fantastic view of the city on the trail. Well maintained trails. Kids didnt like it.
Hours shown are for visitor center only. Park is open everyday, from sun up to sun down. Gorgeous place to hike and wander about. Much of Frankfort is visible from the top of this park.
Best hiking place in frankfort hands down
I love this place very peaceful and relaxing and it has a lot of historical parts so if you are interested in history you for sure will love this place
Beautiful heavily wooded park with hiking trails. Easily encounter wildlife like deer, groundhogs, rabbits and birds. Spectacular views.Also has 2 Pokemon Go ex-raid gyms one near the visitor center and one at the war of 1812 plaque (there is apparently a 3rd PoGo gym on one of the trails) and 14 pokestops (4 of which are accessible from the roads and parking lots in the park)
A great day adventure
Lookout point is beautiful
Perfect place to train!
I have never been harassed, or had any kind of drama or anything there. Its loaded with shaded areas..
Nice walking trails. Couple nice views.
Great views. Hardly anyone else here on a warm March Sunday afternoon. Great escape from Lexington for an afternoon.
Beautiful spot right in downtown Frankfort. Fascinating civil war earthworks. Great place for an in town hike, but youll feel like youre in the wilderness.
A beautiful and peaceful place to hike and see the city.
Nice place to go walk and experience nature and history.
A good historical place. You can see and learned a lot about Frankfort civil war battle
Great walk if theres 20 or more people in the group during summer they will shoot off the cannon .......
Interesting and not well known place
A very pretty place to walk and picnic.
A good spot to remove ones self from everyday small town hubbub. Good trails to explore above the river. Vultures soaring on thermals. Old tavern is visitors center, but it was closed.
Nice Hill top park. Hiking trails cool view of Kentucky river
Not much there but the volunteer was very good with engaging audience & telling history.
Very nice place for an easy hike and I learned a lot of history of the area.
Very well maintained! We visited from out of state and learned a lot of interesting history from the tour guide. Trails are well marked and cleared, great picnic area and a very cool overlook of the capitol city.
Very cool place! If you are in to history you should definetly check out Fort Hill.
Peaceful and clean quiet little area
Beauty tucked within the city.
Nice country atmosphere! You can get lost and get found there without having to pay for it!
Historic park, above Downtown Frankfort
Very cool place to go
A Civil War era attraction, for about 24 hours, Kentucky had two Confederate Capitals during the Civil War.
Beautiful scenery and lookout.
If you ever get the chance to see some history in Frankfort, Ft Hill is very unique and has a great view of downtown Frankfort.
Nice little park to go hiking
Neat little drive to get to the summit of Fort Hill. pleasant walking trails around old Civil War era earthen battlements. There is a seasonal museum as well, but it was still closed when I visited the park.
It was very beautiful was muddy when i was there but still fun
Not a whole lot of information no hike just a short walk
Very peaceful. Great trails
Its a fun place to walk around and the overlook is beautiful.
A beautiful place to see nature. Nice and friendly staff.
Live down the street from the park have good friend who works there guide and teacher Scott
Could be anawesome place but it is rundown! We loved the bird blind but now the floor is falling in, the screens are ripped out, and the feeders arent filled!
Sometimes I walk here during my lunch break. It was some good hills.
Great place to walk and look over down town Frankfort
Nice park. Definitely worth a visit.
Long night walks, public art, homeless people sleeping under a bridge.
Always a great spot
