Recreational opportunities abound in Altoona! Enjoy the natural beauty of the hundreds of roses in Haines Park; 20+ miles of bike trails leading in and out of the city limits and picnic areas of the community's numerous parks; the competitive sights and sounds from the intramural and youth softball, baseball and soccer games held at our 68-acre Sam Wise Youth Athletic Complex and the newly opened Spring Creek Sports Complex. All of this, plus city tennis and pickle ball courts, an aquatic center and two public golf courses which are located within five miles of Altoona.
