Hyland-Bush-Anderson Lakes Regional Park Reserve provides a broad spectrum of natural resource-based
recreational opportunities and facilities that have been developed jointly by Three Rivers Park District
and the City of Bloomington.
Three Rivers Park District and the City of Bloomington are completing the
process of updating the Hyland-Bush-Anderson Lakes Regional Park Reserve Master Plan. The Park Reserve
Master Plan provides guidance and direction for park improvements, natural resource management and future acquisition
as well as park operations and management.
As a Regional
Park Reserve, at least 80 percent of the park must be maintained in a natural state allowing up to 20 percent to be developed
for active recreation uses.
The Master Plan will
continue to balance the park's scenic and natural beauty with desires for recreation, nature study,
trails and other park uses.
