I really didnt see any picnic tables or much more that would help classify this as a park, but then again I was in a hurry to get to the airport so all I managed to get to do was a short walk on the trail and walk to the river to take in the amazing scenery. The river walk area takes you to the Yellowstone River, and offers you a great view of the Sacrifice Cliffs which are pretty spectacular. I wish that I had more time, it would have been great to be able to bike down the trail. If I ever make it back to Montana, I will be sure to return.

Now onto the park itself. There's a parking lot with a few picnic tables, and a trail that seems to go out into the horizon. There's nothing stopping you from getting close to the edge of the rim rocks either, so you can peek over the edge if you dare. There are amazing views of the city, especially pretty in the sunrise.

At nearly the half-way point on a trail between Zimmerman Park and both Two Moon and Coulson Park,…read moreSwords Rimrock Park brings you onto the Chief Blackwater Trail in a spectacular fashion. They call it a Park, and I suppose with a couple of picnic tables in the shelter and the "necessary" building, it is a park, but not one that encourages long-term lounging. There's something about this spot that makes you want to walk, or run, or meander. Here, on top of the rimrocks, either direction, there's an impressive view of the City continuing all the way over to the Beartooth Mountains. It's a park that's also the trailhead for further exploration. Along the route there is an occasional bench upon which to sit and look at the sunset, or the sunrise, or the clouds moving over the mountains. The path is wide enough to accommodate walkers, joggers, and bikers in both directions. It's ADA accessible. But, come back to the Park to take a break, or have that picnic, or just stand around and chat with friends. You can't lose with the view.

Joggers, hikers, adults, kids, families, dog walkers, little league players, swimmers, all have their own space. It has everything: Swimming pool, playground, baseball/softball field, a hiking/jogging/walking trail, a sculpture garden, picnic tables, and more. The big trees provide shady areas for having that picnic or a party. The sculpture garden is an interesting addition to the park. It doesn't seem to fit into the entire outdoor activity thing. On the other hand, why not? The park sees a lot of foot traffic and if the art community wants to showcase the local talent, why not a park. Art for everyone.

They were also pretty steep. There were some artifacts on display at the visitor center. But the actual pictographs are incredibly faded and even with binoculars they were not worth the drive. We weren't trying to get there at opening but we found out there is a gate on the road that doesn't open until 9:00 and the visitors center doesn't open until 10. Make the drive if you want a quiet location where you can hear the cows mooing in the distance. Otherwise, invest your time somewhere else.

The young girl who was sitting up front, did not greet nor smile- I said hello and she ignored me, so even louder I asked how are you doing, arms crossed and still not smiling, said good- and it ended there.

It's a strange place for a grave for someone eligible to be buried in Arlington, but according to the writings about him available at this center, he wanted to be buried where he had his "greatest adventures" and so Montana, high on the Rims overlooking the Yellowstone Valley, it was. The view from here is spectacular. It's also very quiet. There are some easy, paved paths winding near the markers describing the life of Yellowstone Kelly. There's a paved parking lot, if you choose to make the drive here, but it's also accessible from the Heritage Trail path coming from MetraPark for those who prefer hiking, walking, or biking. If learning about historical figures who helped make Billings is on a must-do list, then make the hike. If that's not your style, it's also a nice pause on your walk or run along the trail.

Lots of great spots to see below to town and out to the mountains. Some shaded areas too. Dogs on leashes are permitted. I did not see any restrooms, or picnic tables.

Once you get on the plateau it's a very easy walk from there back to the bottom. Some incredible views with a very nice breeze blowing.

Be careful with small children because there are many drop off points. We really enjoyed it.
