Once a former ski slope, Diamond Hill offers spectacular views and a fairly gradual climb for young and older kids to enjoy. It’s also a great place to picnic and little ones will love checking out the small pond near the old band shell.
The trails are not marked, and we’ve yet to find a map so pay extra attention along the way. Follow the paved path from the parking lot; it will lead you to a wooded path that comes right up against Fisher Road. Continue on the path to get to the summit (easily identified by the old ski lift footings). Return the same way, or take one of several paths to extend your hike.
Length: 1 mile, with opportunity to extend

You might want to bring: binoculars, magnifying glasses
