Scenic Hill Park

Natural Retreat

Tucked away among towering evergreens, Scenic Hill Park offers a refreshing escape from the everyday hustle. Spanning about 7.3 acres, this green sanctuary gives you plenty of room to breathe and play.

Perched on elevated ground in Kent, the park treats you to stunning views of the surrounding landscape. It's the kind of place where you can truly unwind - a little pocket of serenity with enough trees around to make you forget you're still in the city limits.

Trails to Explore

Lace up your walking shoes and hit the winding trails that meander through the woods. These paths showcase the natural beauty that makes the Pacific Northwest so special. The forest loops are perfect whether you're in the mood for a casual stroll, a morning jog, or just want to stop and watch for local wildlife.

Neighbors often gather here to enjoy the outdoors together. With a thoughtful mix of sunny open spaces and shaded retreats, you'll discover your perfect spot regardless of the weather or your sun preference.

Picnic Paradise

The park's covered picnic shelter makes it easy to plan get-togethers, rain or shine. Complete with several tables, it's ideal for family gatherings or meetups with friends, rain or shine. There's also at least one outdoor table if you prefer dining under the open sky, plus plenty of grassy areas meant for spreading out a blanket.

Fire up the grill in the designated cooking area for an authentic outdoor meal. Convenient water access nearby makes cleanup a breeze.

Sports for Everyone

Bring your racket along - the park features courts for both tennis and pickleball. Whether you're up for a friendly game or something more competitive, the courts are available.

There's also a half basketball court where you can practice your jump shot or play a pickup game with friends.

Kid-Friendly Zone

Little ones will make a beeline for the children's playground with its soft bark ground covering. It's a hit with families in the area, offering a safe space where kids can burn off energy and make new playground buddies.

Practical Amenities

No need to cut your park day short - clean restrooms are available and well-maintained. You'll also find water fountains scattered within the grounds when you need a quick drink.

Worried about parking? Don't be. The park offers ample parking spaces, and one of its best features is that it rarely feels crowded, even during what would typically be busy hours.

Perfectly Positioned

Though close to downtown Kent for easy access, the park feels surprisingly removed from city life. The mix of natural areas and recreational facilities makes it appealing for nature walks, sports, family outings, or just finding a quiet moment.
