Hickory Hill Park, Natural reserve in Iowa City, United States
Hickory Hill Park encompasses 190 acres of forests, fields, wetlands, and parkland centered around Ralston Creek and its tributary systems.
The park originated in 1927 with a 40-acre parcel intended for Oakland Cemetery expansion, followed by additional land acquisitions through the 1980s.
The park serves multiple recreational purposes, hosting activities such as hiking, dog walking, cross-country skiing, sledding, and nature observation throughout the year.
Two main access points with parking lots and picnic shelters are available, located at the east end of Davenport Street and south end of Conklin Lane.
The park contains an abandoned railroad right-of-way at its northern end, where tracks were never installed despite ground preparation over a century ago.
