Go there to walk or snowshoe. I love this place at all times of the year. Fall is beautiful. The sculptures are interesting for adults and kids. Admission is by donation. The sculptures are varied. There are several sections. You could spend 15 minutes driving thru or hours walking.

This place has been around a long time, and I'm sure it's overlooked by a lot of people. Take a few minutes to go out of your way and check this place out. Pack a little backpack lunch and make an afternoon of it. It's very creative and I've never seen anything else like it!

You never know what you might come across here. My kids and I have gone to the 2 different entrences and have had alot of fun. The sculptures are original and you are able to touch them, climb on them and discover them like no museum. You might be walking through some trees and come across a girafe or abstract... More

If you ever have the opportunity to come this way, put a few hours aside, get your best walking shoes on and get out in the fresh air and enjoy some of the most spectacular sights, art pieces that you will ever witness in the open air

I have been to this park several times this past year and each time I discover a few more sculptures. Go to hike, take your kids and your dog, enjoy the country and most of all the artwork along the paths. I was just there with my grandsons, age 6,3, 1 and they loved it! Can't wait to return. Be...

The sculptures were not really impressive to us except for the busts of the artist's family. This is quite a rigourous up hill walk if you complete the entire path. Worth seeing but be prepared for an uphill climb.

By far the best sculpture park in the Twin Tiers Region. Great hiking...great art! It's a favorite place of ours to take guests or to visit for our own recreation.

If you like art, this is a great exhibit of larger-than-life scultures with a variety of themes placed throughout a wooded area with ponds and hills. Walk...picnic...enjoy! Bring your camera for great shots!
