7 spots are listed here: 6 official (named by the city, county or park district) and 1 used locally (named only by news, tourism or family guides). Each links to its source.
None of our 7 sources for Buffalo mention lights. Plan on daylight unless a park posts otherwise.

Not necessarily. We found no single rule covering every park in the Buffalo area. Hills labeled Official are on a land manager's list; for the 1 Used locally spots, look for posted signs.
Every hill on this page was checked against its source on 2026-10-28. If something changed, use the "Was this info right?" button on the hill.
