Red Mountain Park

Description

Red Mountain Park encompasses 1,500 acres along the Red Mountain Ridge in central Alabama. The park is conveniently located minutes from downtown Birmingham and several surrounding communities. As the land was once the site of extensive iron ore mining that built Birmingham, Red Mountain was the city’s greatest resource. Today, more than a generation removed from the closing of the last iron ore mine on the property, the 1,500-acre park serves as a vital urban greenspace for a new generation in Birmingham, uniting us toward a healthier future. Explore ways Red Mountain Park can be one of your greatest resources today. Some of our favorite attractions include: 16 miles of hiking and biking trails, three breathtaking tree houses, and the 6-acre off-leash Remy’s Dog Park.

Remy’s Dog Park:
The 6-acre space welcomes you and your dog and features three designated fenced-in areas to accommodate large dogs (1.7 acres), small dogs (.7 acres) and special needs dogs-elderly, shy, injured or recovering- (.3 acres). Remy’s Dog Park features lots of open green space for running and shaded space for resting.
