Havana Glen Park totally surprised me—in the best way. It’s a quiet, peaceful spot that feels like a little hidden gem. The short hike up to Eagle Cliff Falls is super manageable, and the view at the end is absolutely worth it. The waterfall feels almost tucked away, like you stumbled on something secret. The park itself is clean and well-kept, with picnic areas if you want to hang out a bit longer. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to slow down and just enjoy being outside. I’ll definitely be back.
