Beautiful park with lots to do and explore. Walked around the paths for around an hour and a half and never walked the same path twice. The paths are in excellent condition and there are a lot of them to exlore. There's a nice dog park near the parking lot, it wasn't very busy but I'm sure on a day with nicer weather there would be more dogs. They even have a separate fenced off area just for smaller dogs, which is nice. Look forward to coming back and seeing what else the park has to offer.

Wonderful State park with huge dog park areas. we stopped here to stretch our legs from a long drive and it was so worth it. As the name suggests, this is an old farm that has been converted into a state park. There are clean bathrooms and lots to explore. Several huge dog park areas so you can find a level of interaction that works for your dog. looking forward to coming back and exploring more.

Absolutely beautiful farm with a HUGE dog park. It’s amazing this park is provided free to the community. We found if the perfect spot to stop for a picnic before heading up to Niagara. Our dog had so much fun roaming the absolutely huge dog park. It even has a big and small dog section but the big dog section is so big you can bring your small dogs in there with no problem and there will be plenty of space for the doggies.

One of my new favorite hiking spots in the Buffalo area! It has a nice mix of wooded trails and lovely views of the surrounding hills. Trails are well-maintained. The buildings on the property are interesting to look at—the Knoxes were not hurting for money! I’d love to come back sometime when more of the facilities are open. Looked like a lovely park for dog owners, too, with lots of running space. There are horse trails, if you’re into that (if you’re hiking, keep an eye on the ground for horse presents).

Even though it’s a state park, entrance is free.

Amazing park with trails and a fantastic dog park area. Pretty flat landscape, but nice views. Lovely sunsets. The area of the dog park closest to the parking lot has a mud pit by the water spigot in spring, summer, fall, so I usually go to the far side. But it's a really nice dog park, with bags and/or shovels to clean up after your dog (please do!) and usually great dogs to play with and kind people. Separate small dog area. Very well kept, nice spot for a picnic. Busy in summer and fall at peak hours, they sell permits for professional photogs for family/wedding, etc. photos.

I was at the dog park area with my daughter for a cross country race held by Checkers running club. It was a beautiful place. Plenty of dogs to see and watch in the dog park.

The photos don’t due justice, this place is beautiful especially during the fall. It has many trails to walk your dog, just please remember to bring water for them. It also has a library in the woods and relaxing benches to take a seat. It does has two fenced in dog areas, one for big dogs and the other for small. And finally, plenty of parking! Enjoy your trip!!

Knox Farm is a beautiful park to go for a walk or cross country skiing in the winter. It has a paved path for easy walking or trails that you can take into the woods. It also has dog park area. Theres usually quite a lot of dogs having fun there, especially on the weekends. A new small plant store opened recently in the park. Its called The Plant Shack. It's a small shop located in the old potting shed, I believe. The entrance to this is separate from the main parking lot area. You can drive right down to it. Its located by the stables. The rest of the park has it's own parking lot. Knox Farm hosts many different events through the year. From craft shows to a music festival. If you love parks and the outdoors, you will love Knox Farm

Beautiful piece of land to explore our relax. Bring your kids, pets, bike, or roller blades. There's a few amazing walking trails through fields, woods, and gardens. It is a definite must visit. There's also a very cool book closet tucked back a bit in the woods with a bench. Bring the kiddos, it's sure to be their new favorite reading spot.

Unique, multi habitat, sprawling state park minutes from the heart of East Aurora, originally owned by the Knox family of Buffalo. You can hike, cross country ski, bike (in designated areas) and ride horseback (with permit) throughout the park. Some have said the sunsets are magical here and after experiencing some I have to agree. Come for a visit and see for yourself.

I love to come hiking here with my dog and significant other. Within the space there are different kinds of habitats including woods, grasslands and ponds which make me feel like I was transported to a tale in a storybook. It’s fun and keeps things interesting to see a few quick scenery changes on a hike that is often less than 3 miles. The paths are clearly marked and there are easy to follow maps onsite. The main path is the outer loop with various trails that cut across so you can customize the length of your outing. This is great place for hikers who are just starting out because the terrain is not difficult and the way the trails are designed you will always be able to easily find your way back to the main parking lot. One of my favorite parts of the park is the library hidden in the woods. This consists of some benches in the shade and a book closet where visitors can borrow something to read or leave a book to share.

It’s also fun to people watch here. Grab a coffee before you come and watch people in the multi use space. There is an expansive dog park broken down into two sections for large and small dogs. Facilities on location for weddings, conventions, and special events which include seasonal craft shows, and annual events including Bark Bash and Borderlands Art and Music Festival. You can also check out the historic barns which are currently being restored. The barns are home to some farm animals who reside on the property.

There is an organization set up, Friends of Knox Farm, which allows the community to get involved and donate funds or their time to help maintain the park. It’s cool to see members of the community taking pride in caring for such a special park.

Awesome park! Wonderful hiking trails through the woods & huge dog park; perfect for
dogs to run free off leash. Great place for a summer/fall picnic!

We love it here! One of the best dog parks in WNY! Old horse pastures turned into one of the biggest fenced in dog park we have ever been to. 3 seperate dog areas one small dog park and two big and small dogs mixed. Knox also has tons of paved and gravel trails! Very close to downtown East Aurora, lots of shops and good restaurants!

The perfect place for architecture and landscape photographs. Not much else to do besides hiking, there are two dog park areas. Not recommended for skaters or roller skating.

Beautiful place to take a walk and enjoy nature. Great place for dogs too. You can use the dog park to socialize and exercise or walk the nature trails if they like to explore.
