The spray park has a number of attractions, but the biggest improvement was the addition of a full restroom/changing rooms right next to the spray park.

I recently drove out to Harrison Hills Park, which is in Natrona Heights, for a guided hike put…read moretogether by the local park rangers. The particular hike I went on ultimately had more talking than hiking, so my mother (who had invited me) and I left the group early to walk on our own. With that in mind, my visit here was relatively brief, but I loved what I saw! Harrison Hills Park itself is a 500 acre park, so needless to say, my mom and I did not trek through much of it at all. We started out by wandering some trails overlooking the river; and after a while, we drove to a different parking lot so we could venture down other trails and visit a pond. Since it was the fall, we primarily saw lots of gorgeous autumn colors while walking; not only that, but we got lucky and a pair of bald eagles flew past us when we were above the river. That was a stunning sight I won't soon forget! As mentioned earlier, some guided programs are offered here by various groups, which I think are a great, especially for families. And during my visit, we also passed a playground and soccer field, which is more great news for families! I also want to mention that according to the park website, "Along with the usual walking, jogging, hiking and biking trails, there is a paved trail that is wonderful for wheelchairs." It's not often that I see accessibility like that in nature parks, so kudos to the volunteers and group in charge of this area. The website is worth checking out in general, as this is a surprising versatile park. The site has information about everything from a learning center to a list of popular seasonal sports and activities. Very helpful for planning future visits. I look forward to visiting Harrison Hills Park again in the spring and summer. Between gorgeous wildflowers and seasonal birding and wildlife activities, those seasons are sure to be even more delightful times to experience this beautiful area!

The building where we held the event was known as the Girl Scout Little House which was built during the 1940's for the GSA. Although the building needs some renovations, it served its purpose well. Although located in an urban area (New Kensington, PA), it is somewhat secluded and surrounded on three sides by woods. There is a highway on one side that causes some noise pollution, but nothing much to worry about. There are also other free standing picnic pavilions on site, and a recreation of the original Massa Harbison log cabin which was made famous during the early conflicts with the Native Americans, which the younger members of the family adored. This site is a rare jewel in the raw and requires the attention of city officials to secure funding to rehab the site to become a destination location in the future.

This was also just a small snapshot of the park too. There are lots of ball fields, hiking trails and even an airfield. There is plenty to explore here. The one drawback I would say is the accessibility. It's a far hike from any major highways/roads with lots of curvy roads leading there. It would be nice to have a more accessible with maybe even some bus routes.

The playground equipment is a little faded but still looks to be structurally sound. We rented the pavilion for a graduation party; it was perfect and inexpensive.
