This park offers an exceptional view of downtown Cincinnati and the Ohio River. It’s beautiful at night as well when you can see all the lights from the city. I also saw a wedding reception hosted at the park and it seemed to offer a nice set up. This park is perfect for photographers to take photos of downtown. Overall I think it’s a great park to visit!

Pretty big park with a very great view of Cincinnati. Went to go run with my roommate the other day. We were looking for the trail and stumbled into two guys shooting up some heroin. Good time thiugh

What a great view of Cincinnati Ohio, and Ludlow Kentucky. The park has stuff to keep the kids busy and be safe while they are playing. It’s very peaceful up there. I can just sit on the ledge and look at the Ohio River and relax and meditate. You have got to check it out.

This park has a great view of downtown Cincinnati from the west side. I personally have lived very close to this park for most of my life. I have had a lot of good memories here as a kid, a teen and as a adult. There is a play area for the kids, tennis courts, and basketball hoops. They also have nice sitting areas to have a picnic outside and I believe they still have the iron grills so you don’t have to bring one other than some charcoal. It is in my top best parks in the Tri-​State area!

Mt. Echo gets 3-​stars just for the gorgeous city view. It really is one of the best in the city.
For me, unfortunately, the rest of the park is just okay. While there is endless greenspace to let kids run or lay out a picnic blanket, there aren’t many other amenities. Everything is a little worn down. For those with children, the playground is small with broken parts and lots of vandalism.
It’s kind of like the parks department spends all the budget for Mt. Echo on the overlook and monument area, which is a shame. This park has so much potential and is convenient from downtown, but it just isn’t worth more than a quick trip.

Mt. Echo has a wonder panorama of the city, river, and KY. If you get their early it is a great spot for the WEBN Fireworks. Reading the other reviews — I don’t find it hard to find at all there is a sign that clearly marks its location and it is not in one of the rougher parts of the city. I live 1 block away from the park and often walk to it. There are shelters for gatherings, tennis courts, basketball, and the pavillion is quite nice.
This park is greatly used by West siders so don’t go expecting quiet in the summer time or great hiking you will get neither — its good for contemplation with the views or fab picnics. A big destination for reunions and family outings.

One of the nicer parks in Cincinnati and tucked away in a neigborhood, so you’ll have to hunt to find it.
Very popular in the warmer months and provides some nice views of the Ohio River Valley.

Mt. Echo Park gives one of the best views of the city. Its surprising to find such a nice park in one of the rougher parts of town, but you’d be missing out if you avoided it because of that. With the view you can see Union Terminal, the Cincinnati skyline, Newport’s budding skyline and the Ohio River snaking through the valley.
There is plenty else to do there, though, if you get tired of the view. Shelters and grills, athletics like walking paths and basketball courts, Mt. Echo is a nice natural hideaway stuck in the urban westside of Cincy.

If you want a great view of Cincinnati but don’t want to go to Kentucky, Mt Echo gives you an option, especially proximal for west siders. Looking down the river, you can see the skyline, the stadiums, the suspension bridge, Mt Adams, and pretty much everything glorious about Cincinnati.
If you want more than just a panorama, you’ll also find some shelters, grills, hoops, walking paths, and a ballfield. But the view is what makes this park so magnificent. It will echo through your mind’s eye for weeks (ba dum psha!)
