pyramid hill sculpture park

We have always driven through their Holiday in Lights show at the holidays. It is a little pricey but worth it because it gets better every year. We play Christmas music and stay in or warm car and my son loves it. If you are a member, you do get a discount. This past year, I purchased a family membership through Groupon. It was totally worth it as I believe they charge $3 per person each time you go unless you have the membership. We went for the first time back in November to take a look at the leaves. It was chilly but sunny so we rented a golf cart and of course my 7 year old thought that was great. We drove along the paved road and stopped at various sculputers, took some photos, relaxed, and walked around a bit and had a wonderful Sunday afternoon. We plan to go back in the spring as there are lots of places set up to have a picnic and will be pretty to see everything with the leaves on the trees and things blooming. They have trails for hiking as well. There are fountains and ponds and lots of places to explore. They do have an art show in September and kids programs on Wednesdays throughout the summer so well worth whatever you pay for a membership.

The Christmas lights are outstanding. And the sculptures throughout the year are worth the visit. There are many people who come to Hamilton just for the visit to Pyramid Hill.

Went for the holiday lights and the ace was all done up. Could have been bigger for the price but it was very pretty. Not too crowded during my visit but traffic and organization seemed quite good. Kids would probably love this place like crazy. Very romantic as well.

The pyramid park holiday lights display was spectacular. It was more than just light up snowman. The drive was aligned with lights and every tree was glowing. It's not a very long display but still very amazing. I thought the cost was a little high at $25 a carload. But it was worth it to me.

Always something added to their collection. Although the weather was not ideal being able to review from your automobile is ideal.

Jaw dropping. Inspiring, Ogling. Delightful. Fun. Pick a positive descriptive adjective and the Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park is that and more. Total surprise. My wife learned of it with a Groupon for discount admission (even undiscounted, it's not all that much!). We drove the two hours from Indianapolis and so blown away by what we found. An outdoor sculpture park on about 300 acres of woodland. Yes, one can drive it, or golf cart it but we chose to walk it and it took about three hours (but that included a picnic). It was a beautiful fall day and a perfect day for a long pleasant walk. (Note: I'm 65 and my wife is 63 and in relatively good shape.) The attached photos will show you some of what we saw but the sculpture is fun, serious, delightful, engaging and placed perfectly with the landscape surrounding it. I think there were 50 or so pieces. And if that weren't enough, in a low profile building is another kind of art gallery that we, at first, thought were replicas of statues from ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome. Nope. Not replicas.It's a definite 'RECOMMEND'. Never seen anyplace like it in the Midwest.

Pyramid Hill Park is an absolute must-see. You can spend hours just driving or walking around the park looking at all the beautiful sculptures. An awesome way to get around is one of the 'art carts" - a golf cart that you can rent for very reasonable and set a leisurely pace winding around on the paved pathways, stopping whenever you want. There are wide open spaces, wonderful vistas and just an awesome way to enjoy nature. The museum is an absolute must-see as well. You'll see wonderful Egyptian, Roman and Greek artifacts that have been collected over decades. Don't miss this wonderful park!

My husband and I finally decided to check out this park. Wow, are we glad we did! We used the map and sculpture chart to create our own scavenger hunt. There are 63 sculptures over 300 acres of gorgeous grounds, woods, lakes, hiking trails and driving trails. (We found all the sculptures but one.) Some are tucked away and some are not; which made it more interesting. The hiking trails (that in some places offer a million dollar view) were quietly romantic. As if that were not enough, there is an authentic pioneer cabin and ancient sculpture museum on the grounds that are included with your admission. There are picnic tables so bring a lunch! There is more here than meets the eye.

This a great preserved natural area in an urban setting. Only problem is that the roads are very difficult to travel at night. We went to a wedding in the evening and wandered around in the dark trying to get out.

We visited Pyramid Hill with grand kids aged 7 and 4 last weekend. A couple of comments:- The 7 year old found the park inspiring. He made sketches on nearly a dozen of the sculptures.- The 4 year old was mostly interested in the park's wide open spaces- The grandparents thought the visit was very worthwhile from their own enjoyment- As the park is outdoors, plan your visit for a nice day- You can drive the park or walk the roads and trailsI do agree with other reviewers that he map/guide could be better organized, but that did not really hamper our experience. It was a day of discovery that was very enjoyable.

If your thing is a place to relax and view ponds, rolling hills and works of art, Pyramid Hill in Cleves, OH. is a wonderful place to go. Besides the numerous sculptures located throughout the park, there is a quaint museum with Egyptian pieces on display, and the signature name of a blue glass pyramid topping a residence built into a hill. The park allows well mannered pets on a leash. There are many ways to view the park, you can drive your car around numerous loop roads, walk the paved trails, or rent a golf cart to name a few. Purchase a family pass, it will pay for itself after three visits and helps with the upkeep of this unique attraction.

This is an unique experience... out door sculpture set in nature. (Much like Storm King in NY)The contemporary sculps themselves are very dynamic in such a peaceful setting. BUT... the map with the descriptions is very difficult to follow and very difficult to match with the viewed sculpt. And... unlike Storm King, the sculps aren't in vistas that enhance their artistic value. They seem to be placed at random and you have to provide the emotion.In any case, it's worth a visit... as long as you know what to expect... contemporary scultures... the best of which is at the entrance. So... if you don't like the entrance piece... turn around and save your money.

We went not really knowing what we were going to see. The map was difficult to match to the art works. The information was more about the artist than the significance of the piece. We kind of decided afterward it wasn't something we really enjoyed? Might just be us.

PYRAMID HILL SCULPTURE PARK AND MUSEUM in Hamilton, Ohio will be many things to many people but it’s difficult to imagine how it could be considered nondescript. The brochure states it best: “It’s a unique outdoor museum combining the lure of nature with the dynamic presence of contemporary sculpture.” The huge sculptures are placed strategically throughout the 335 acres of woodlands, meadows, lakes and gardens, hiking trails and roadway. The sculpture is never really out of view and is accessible on foot, golf carts (for rent) or by car. There always seems to be a place to pull off the roadway (weather permitting), park the car and view these fascinating sculpted pieces from afar or closeup.Pyramid Hill is definitely a hands-on experience. Touch the sculpture, examine the materials which comprise the pieces, and admire the artistic vision and skill which created them. It’s giant-size, durable art for kids young and old.Pyramid Hill is designed with the environment in mind. The sense is that the siting of the sculptures is a deliberate effort to merge the man-made with the natural landscape -- and without damage to the ecosystem. The sculptures when seen collectively seem also to be part of a giant mosaic. When viewing the design of certain pieces, there is frequently another sculpture viewable in the distance: compositions within a composition. It’s a photographer’s and plein air painter’s framing heaven.The visitor center is the perfect place to begin one’s perambulations of this lovely park. A very pleasant docent oriented this reviewer to the overall park experience. Families with children might opt for a golf cart touring experience so as to provide for stop-offs at the pavilion and rest-room facilities scattered around the campus.My visit was interrupted half way through because of an overheated car radiator. Greg, one of the park staff, kindly assisted me in refilling the radiator so that I could journey home an hour’s ride away. Fortunately, the return trip was uneventful. I was and am most appreciative for his appearance on the scene.Pyramid Hill is an open air, landscaped delight and one worth several visits throughout the year so as to take advantage of the changing light, seasons, and sculpture en situ. This vision for this Park is and was nicely framed for an immediate and lasting experience.

We drove a little over an hour to see the Christmas lights. My teenagers seriously doubted they would be worth it but they were wrong and admitted it! The lights were great! I would go again!
