Confirmed from Forest Rock Hills Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
City park with a playground, picnic tables, and on-street parking, plus kid-friendly hiking trails.
What runners say about Forest Rock Hills Park
I've lived in poulsbo for 20+ years and never knew this hidden little park was even here and I've never heard anyone mention it either.....I wish I would've known it was there, I definitely would've taken my kids there to play.
Love this almost always empty park. No public restroom, but a awesome playset, big trees for partial shade, a little walking trail with a picnic table either by the playground or down the trail a bit. Many dog walkers, not tons of kids and always a good place to pick blackberries during the season.
Cool neighborhood park with a nice large playground for the kids and walking trails in the woods behind. At the end of a dead end street in a residential neighborhood so it's not obvious it's there. Would be 5 stars if it had a bathroom and was more centrally located.
small, but nice. the trails are very short and perfect for taking young ones. i like this park so much ive been considering buying the property attached to it and somehow extending the trails.
