A huge place to walk around and enjoy the beauty of nature while just being a rocks throw away from downtown Ann Arbor. Plenty of birds, squirrels, bees and bugs around to admire as you walk through, over and around the landscape. Watch the sunset or gain some knowledge at this incredible park.

Amazing little park for people of all ages. A small playground for children to play on, soccer fields galore for some athletic activities, and incredible walking paths that lead you down and around a handful of ponds. The mild hike around Turtle Rock Pond is one of my favorite. I wish they would repair the boardwalk across the pond, but going and sitting by the water's edge is nice either way! I'd highly recommend this park for anyone looking to get out and walk, run, or bike around. Never sell yourself short on nature, there's beauty abound in the world.

A great park for family fun and relaxing. Also, a beautiful place to sit and fish or watch the sun rise or set! Plenty of birds around as well. This park also has a large field that could be used for soccer, throwing a Frisbee, or various other activities!

Lovely little preserve with nice walks through fields and a couple of trails leading through the woods. Numerous loops lead you through some hilled areas and some flat. It's pretty exposed so it can be toasty on hotter days. Also, bugs can be a little heavy at times, so it's something to consider. But you'll see a variety of different wildlife here; birds, bunnies, frogs, snakes and more call this preserve home, and it's a wonderful place for a morning or evening walk. Additionally, you'll find a diverse amount of plant life; honeysuckles, daisies, etc. There is also a picnic table and fireplace in a small field for a lunch break or nighttime pow wow. Step out into nature and enjoy the sunshine 🌞

A tremendous nature preserve that provides wonderful hikes through a wooded area. The preserve itself is fairly large and has well marked paths that are easy to understand and navigate. The shear beauty that Cherry Hill provides cannot be understated. The wildlife, the trees, the flowers, and so much more make this a must go to in the Ann Arbor/ Ypsilanti area. It can be quite muddy and hard to walk after a heavy rain, but for the most part is easy going. It is also a popular place and you may run into quite a handful of people on a nice day. Lastly, the bugs can be a bit gnarly, so bug spray can be handy! Enjoy your next hike here!
