Nice little hidden gem. This is a small, well maintained loop trail that snakes it way back to a large, swampy pond. Its not a major hikers destination by any means, but local hikers should make an effort to check it out at some point.

Lovely little place for a stroll. It only takes about 15 minutes to walk it, so I go around twice.

Cool little trail that is simple to walk.

Birds, insects, plants, water and amazing sounds and sights of nature. I walked up to an Indigo Bunting and it sat on its perch watching me as I walked by, taking me in as common as the sunshine and breeze. Entering Caperton Swamp and walking the grounds nurtures my spirit, reminds me of my place with nature and transports my soul to a place I cherish. Ive recorded bird sounds and the soundscape there but bordered by River Road and Interstate 64 create a noise pollution which serves only as a reminder how important it is to the human spirit to get away from road and urban noises and steep oneself in nature! Thanks to the benefactors and Louisville for securing and preserving Caperton Swamp for the publics and natures welfare and benefit.

Really cool park for the cooler months! I dont recommend it in the summer as there is many mosquitos. Some rmfabtastic nature can be found out there.

Best park in the area for sure. Definitely a birding hotspot and always interesting wildlife any time of the year. Just be respectful of those who live there and do your part to preserve one of the remaining spots of swampland along the river.

So pretty and peaceful, if youre lucky you might see the resident beaver there

As a retired naturalist I am most impressed with the efforts to eradicate invasive plant species, and the planting of so many native species in compliment to the buttonbush, buck bush, and walnut etc... already in place.Yesterday I noted a lot of recent beaver sign, a great egret, and a pair of Ruddy, or more likely, Buffleheads; bad eyes, no optics with me.It is quite the pocket wilderness/oasis in our urban landscape.

An actual, real life swamp in Louisville. One of our favorite walks.

Small and enchanted

One of Louisville’s best kept secrets. Otters, beavers, deer, turtles, foxes, and more birds than you can count.

Its clean and no hanky pranky in the bushes.

Nice park, basically a swamp. Nice for trail running.
