Directions to Owl's Head Park

Under Construction
The upper overlook terrace and paths are closed. We are reconstructing the 70-year old terrace with new paving, benches, fences, landscaping and lighting. A new path will make the terrace accessible to everyone. We are also adding a drinking fountain and bike rack. In addition, we will be pruning and fertilizing the trees and cleaning the drainage system.
The result will be a lovely, tranquil spot to relax and enjoy nature, or to participate in special events.
Anticipated Completion: Spring 2010
