Germany Hill

LUV IT HERE!!!! MY SANCTUARY! AND MY PLAYGROUND!!!!

A little bit of wilderness in the heart of philly

Lightly used trails. When you go in you do feel like your deep in the woods.

Always Remember Germany Hill , Battles and wars, Dirt Bikes, Short cut to Parker Ave .. And Silverwood st.

This forgotten park, now threatened by development, contains great lengths of walking trails and some ruins can even be seen across the property. The stairway built by the City in 1917, located at by the retaining walls at Fountain & Smick, is has fallen into ruin as well and is overrun with brush and is difficult to see. The official entrance is actually down at the other end of Smick, located by a small parking area of no more than two or three spaces. Additional entrances can be found at the park's north end on Cinnaminson and also with a few along Parker.

A small, maintained war memorial can also be found off Smick located at approximately where the brick pavement ends. Hopefully local government and or civic groups will one day make efforts to return the Germany Hill park back to its previous meadow-like life.
