Channing H. Philbrick Park is an urban park in the town of Penfield, not far from Rochester, New York. Also known as Linear Park, this scenic area has reasonably easy hiking paths taking you through wooded areas and along the streams that flow through the park, Irondequoit Creek and Honey Creek. The streams are quite active, especially in the spring, and have small waterfalls in several areas. The paths that follow these creeks are gravel in some areas and utilize wooden walkways in others; there are a couple of bridges that the paths cross over, giving you an elevated look at your surroundings.

Visit with your Penfield camper rental, and you're likely to spot the bird species that nest in the park along with several smaller wildlife mammal species. The trails have several side paths in case you want to extend your hiking trip, and there is a kiosk where you'll see the locations of some 19th-century mills that existed in the area. Keep on the lookout, and you can see the remains of some of these buildings. Camping near Channing H. Philbrick Park is a good way to set yourself up for wildlife viewing and photography; you can even enjoy fishing if you bring a rod and reel.
