Imagination brought to life at the Highfield Discovery Garden

I’ve always been really impressed with the parks in the Cincinnati Metro. Great Parks of Hamilton County does such a great job of providing lots of outdoor recreation and programming to encourage people to enjoy the outdoors.

I also love to discover parks that are unique. The Highfield Discovery Garden at Glenwood Gardens feels like a scene out of a children’s book imagined brought to life.

The Highfield Discovery children’s garden is a gated feature at Glenwood Gardens park with a small additional fee that it is worth the price.

Our visit was during the winter months, but I can only imagine how gorgeous this playground is when everything is in bloom.

Discovery Tree

One of the first features that kids will LOVE is the 25 ft. Discovery Tree. They can climb under and all over. It’s a pretty incredible structure for a game of tag, dreaming, or playing hide and seek.

The outdoor trolley garden features 4 small scale trains and a little conductor booth. Kids will love watching the trains up close throughout the structure.

This 12 acres garden features 7 smaller gardens. Kids will enjoy discovering each section. Each small garden has its own personality.

Admission

If you decide that you want to visit more often, a family pass would be a better value. You can use your daily admission toward the cost upgrading to a family pass during your visit.
