Forestry Park is 45 acres mixture of prairie and woodland that is under a long-term lease to the Bottineau Park District from the North Dakota Forest Service.&nbsp; In the past parts of the property were used by the Forest Service as an arboretum and as a tree nursery.&nbsp; Since the start of the lease in 1999, the Park District has put in place a children\u2019s playground, picnic shelters, and a disc golf course.&nbsp; Today residents can still have memorial trees planted in the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"975\" height=\"732\" src=\"https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/image-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-587\" srcset=\"https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/image-2.png 975w, https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/image-2-480x360.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 975px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_093800-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-588\" srcset=\"https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_093800-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_093800-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_094654-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_094654-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_094654-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_095043-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-590\" srcset=\"https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_095043-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_095043-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_095119-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-591\" srcset=\"https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_095119-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/woldengr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/20220921_095119-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bottineau City Park District recently completed the fourth and final phase of a hiking\/biking and nature trail system in Forestry Park.&nbsp;&nbsp;
