Forest Park is 10 times more forest than park, one of the largest urban parks in the country at more than 5,000 acres. The Tolinda-Ridge Trail Loop, which winds through the quieter, wooded northern reaches of Forest Park before looping back down for a spectacular vista of the St. Johns Bridge, feels light-years away from any city but is just a 15-minute drive from downtown.
