The first time we went to check out Northampton Park, we got lost, and couldn't figure out exactly where the best place to park would be. It's a BIG park, with multiple trails and playgrounds. I highly advise looking up a map on the Monroe County website so that you know where you want to be! Tried again for the second time yesterday because we had heard there was a new playground and it was amazing. We were not disappointed! The playground is easy to spot right off of Hubbell Road. It's called Alpine Adventure Zone, and apparently it is made from local trees and boulders. One of the coolest I have ever seen! There are balance beams galore, tunnels, benches, swings, lots of yard, and nature trails. I saw almost as many adults playing as I did kids, which was fun. My daughter was in love. After scoping out the playground we followed one of the nature trails. We got to see a tiny creek, some "fairy houses", and a few passing bunnies along the way. The dirt trail made it an easy walk, even with kids. I am definitely looking forward to going back and exploring other areas of the park - there is a farm trail, too! Highly recommend. read more
