This was so cute. It’s on the Fire Trail so make sure you take a map with you. Sadly, some visitors have carved their names into the wood but overall, it’s so beautiful with its own rake garden. The Monte Sano State Park does cost $5 per person but once you go in, you’ll see why. It’s kept very well.
This is a true hidden gem of Huntsville -- it's small, but it's beautiful, and they sometimes do Japanese Festivals, which are fun opportunities to experience small parts of another culture. Regardless of whether there is a festival going on, I encourage everyone to come enjoy this garden. It's a good place for non-hikers to enjoy the fresh air, and it's visually appealing for hikers as well, so it has potential as a bonding experience, too.
They've done a great job of taking care of this place lately. They've added some new greenery and dusted off all of the spider webs. All around peaceful area.
Wonderful place to sit and relax, take in nature and enjoy for all it's worth. A very short walking distance from at least 3 trail entrances, once you find the garden it is like entering a secret world. It's a magical place early in the morning, evokes a feeling of divine solitude, yet so very close to civilization. Could do with some maintenance, but the slight wear and wildness to the area adds to the splendor.
A nice hike, even for kids. Interesting things to see, along with a couple of small wooden bridges, a dojo, and a small bamboo Trail. Just a nice little hike.
