Beautiful city park with lovely hiking trails. It's an amazing escape in the heart of an urban residential landscape.
The trails are well maintained, and I often see volunteers planting native variatals and removing invasive species.
Hiking in the park is a relaxing escape from daily pressures. There are several highlights, namely the Wesinghouse Memorial (newly restored and with a small pond) and the Panther Hollow Lake.
There's a very pleasant frisbee golf course, tennis courts, and an ice skating rink.
You can rent the shelters or pavilions through the city park website, they have modernized a once cumbersome process, you used to have to physically wait in line, now it's done via the Internet.
During the warm weather they have cinema in the park, which can be a lot of fun.
Overall, Schenley is a superb park with lots of great amenities.
