About the Location

Breathtaking Views

Nestled on the eastern edge of Price Hill in Cincinnati, Wilson Common is a tranquil retreat off Wilsonia Avenue that offers a peaceful escape from the city bustle while still keeping you connected to Cincinnati's beauty.

The real star of the show here is the overlook, where you can soak in panoramic vistas of Cincinnati's landscape. It's an excellent spot to appreciate the city's skyline or simply sit back and reflect while surrounded by nature. The beautiful view of the river from this vantage point is nothing short of spectacular - especially if you catch it during sunset.

Play & Recreation Space

If you're bringing the little ones along, you'll discover a small playground area equipped with the classics they'll love. There are swings for that exhilarating feeling of flying, a nostalgic see-saw, and other play equipment that'll keep kids entertained while they burn off energy in the fresh air.

The park's open green spaces are versatile enough for whatever recreational activity strikes your fancy. Throw down a blanket for a lazy afternoon, toss a frisbee around, or bring your four-legged friend for some exercise - local dog owners frequently do the same.

Park Amenities

Scattered throughout Wilson Common, you'll come across several picnic tables that make for great spots to enjoy an outdoor meal or gather with friends. Some areas may even have grills available if you're feeling like cooking out.

Just note that seating is somewhat limited with only one sitting bench along the walking trail, so you might want to pack a portable chair if you're planning to stay awhile.

Natural Surroundings

A walking trail loops around the park, excellent for a casual stroll or some light exercise. It's not extensive, but it's just right for getting a breath of fresh air while exploring the park's natural elements.

While it may not be the largest green space in Cincinnati, Wilson Common is something of a quiet location in Price Hill. Its quiet, unassuming character makes it a favorite among locals who appreciate having this tranquil outdoor space within the Cincinnati Parks system.
