Its a beautiful park. The lake was very calm this morning. There were a few fishermen but it seemed that the fish werent biting when I was there.
My granddaughter asked me to take her on a nature walk, so we jumped in the truck and got a lunch snack and went to Waverly Park. There is a lake for fishing with a group of ducks to feed bread crumbs. A nice fenced in dog walk area, bike and foot trails and best of all... the kids swings are open and working. Its a clean well serviced forest park.
The park has a nice Lake that is stocked with Catfish and trout three times per year.There are hiking trails throughout the park, including a gravel or paved path around the entire Lake.There use to be a couple of port-a-cans but there is now a restroom facility that has been constructed.
Fished out, there are people who live close by that fish there every day possible! Other than the river Kentucky doesnt have naturally formed ponds. They stock trout in the fall months because the fish do better than in the heat. Its a neat little spot though, nice pier. Ill be back. There was a maintenance man picking up trash from the lot, not nearly as bad as some others Ive been to.
Nice picnic area. Fishing lake. Playground. Dog park is nice, but needs grass mowed more often.Bike trails and hiking trails, too.
The park was beautiful and the lake, our dog really enjoyed the dog park area. But there was a lot of drug paraphernalia laying around and it made us nervous to see syringe caps in the woods close to the parking area. Could use some tlc in that aspect.
There is a small dog park here. Great trails
Very nice trails, not hard if your not used to hiking. Im an avid hiker so it was easy for me. Lots of deer
Really nice place to get some fresh air. Good biking/hiking trails and a pretty lake.
Hubby loves fishing. We found this spot and love it. Park is taken care of
I was hoping to see Waverly place. But couldnt see it. The park was nice
A great place to fish, stroll around the lake, hike, bike trails, and to relax.There are several geocaches there too.
Absolutely wonderful. Many trails, much to see. Totally enjoyable. Will go back.
Water way to admire ducks and fishing . Calming and nice trails to walk, hike and bike .
Really nice mtb trails for the Louisville area. Semi strenuous climbs, but the trails are pretty smooth and not technical so good for beginning riders. Trails are good for running, as well.
This place is so nice.The road there is crazy curvy.But once there it was very nice.Well worth the crazy road to get there.
I went to this park when I was a child and was thoroughly impressed with the changes that had been made from the last time I had been there over 40 years ago. It is well maintained and clean. It has been updated with bathrooms and water fountains for drinking as well as walking paths. There are bike trails. There has been a dock added over the pond/lake to fish from and to see the fish and ducks. There is a small playground for the children that has two swings, 3 slides, climbing rope ladder, and bridge. The park is full of wildlife as well. There are frogs, toads, ducks, geese, lizards, and deer. Definitely a must for a relaxing and fun filled day!
Lots of hiking trails and even a dog run. Love this park
Beautiful park I took my boy fishing for his first time and he caught a little fish! So exciting! I love this place almost more than iroquois!
Beautiful lake bathrooms Clean and nice trails
The wife and I love it here very clean and quiet we go here to fish and just relax and listen to nature
Its beautiful. I cant wait to try the trails.
Great little park so close to home.
Nice little oasis in Louisville. Very scenic with trails throughout. Little to no trash. Tried catching bass with an arsenal of lures, no luck but Ill withhold judgment until a few more visits. Would be a great place to take children. Nice and quiet with a little playground near but not too close to the lake.
A beautiful place to walk around
Great place to take the kids fishing or go for a little hike through the woods
Mountain biking here was very cool. Great exercise for old man like me. I will be back.
Very quiet and serene, fresh air
Very good memories of some hot hot times
Love this park and the the Dogs too. Good hiking trails, beautiful lake with fishing and the dogs never want to leave.
Nice park. If you are afraid of heights where a blind fold. Cleanest bathrooms i have ever seen
Awesome biking and hiking trails. Drinking water facilities and a dog park all well managed.
Nice and peaceful place didnt catch much but the company and quiet time was nice. A little off the beaten path worth it to relax.
Nice relaxing little lake. Fishing seems to be ok. Just remember, its called fishing, not catching
Really nice park with a Great trail system for mountain biking and Hiking. Small playground for kids, a big fishing pond, and fenced dog park area.
Not very many fish..plus over populated with ppl and turtle
Nice place to fish, find rocks, and hike.
Our whole family loves the trails. This park is well kept. We like that its not very large
Nice clean and I enjoyed fishing and being out doors
I love this trail once you get far enough back you cant hear anything but nature!
I rode the mountain bike trails, they are excellent for intermediate riders, fast and flowy
Majestic Autumn day in Louisville KY.2020
Best place to go with the family
Nice park with plenty of trails and a decent lake. Note for anglers: although Ive caught some big largemouth and catfish out of waverly lake, it is HIGHLY pressured.. Id try to find somewhere more lowkey
#nice views, great paths #petfriendly #fishinglake
Great park with great trails! Wide and clear paths.
Very pretty and clean.
Pretty nice lil dog park
I was able to get into the dog park at Waverly but a fence was broken that the dogs could get out of. I called the number on the sign and they said that it cost $35 a year to join to be able to use the dog run. FYI
Great park for fishing about 10 different types of fish stocked in the pond there. Saw a kid pull a full stringer of fish he caught back to the car. Fun stuff!!
Very nice park walking trials pretty cool
As a mountain biker, my review is based on that and not necessarily the other parts of the park. They have an amazing network of trails that are great for beginners all the way to Advanced Riders. Lots of climbing but fun rewards on the other side of those climbs. Good technical sections and really great Trail work. The trails are well-thought-out and give a great variety of riding . The park itself is beautiful as well.
Awesome place to go with your pooch. Even some water for my lab
Great quiet family and friends spot to enjoy fishing, parties or just a walk in the park. It is a fun place
Great place for the kids to play
Lots of ducks to feed and nice trials
Best mountain biking trails in the area!
Beautiful park for picnics, fishing, or just a quiet getaway!
Clean and peaceful a nice place to walk with the family
What are you talking about? Have not been there!
Beautiful and peaceful
Quait little park. A few walking/biking trails and a little long thats fairly well stocked for most of the year.
Awesome park for hiking, fishing, kids and even our lil fury kids do enjoy.
Great trails for running, hiking or bikes. Dog park is nice.
Need to make the road wider bc I almost got ran off the road 4 times
Awsome park
Beautiful, well maintained. Two of the trails here (the park loop and the lake loop) are great for all ages, even small kids.
Love this park!
Perfect place for trails! If trails are your thing, welcome to Waverly park!
Nice mtb trails.
Beautiful park with trails, pond & playground. Our kids loved it!
This is a great small park with hiking trails and a lake, also facilities .
Plenty of catfish ta catch.. the dock is the spot!
Great place for a family outing
Catch slot of fish here, trout, cat, only seen bass caught. Very relaxing scenery
Fun trail riding!
Love coming to this park different trail options plus a decent dog park
Me and my boyfriend had a lovely time here! Fun trails to explore, and over all a nice place to visit. I do recommend it!
I love the pond, paths and forest. It was very beautiful. I loved exploring the woods with my then Girlfriend. The woods was so romantic and beautiful that it influenced my decision to make it the place that I proposed to my now wife. I love this place, its perfect for walks, fishing, exploring nature, and walking your dogs. They even have an enclosure for your dogs, so they dont run off through the woods. The creek that runs through the woods was awesome as well, there is a lot to see. 10/10
Was a nice place to stop and take some pictures. Didnt get to explore so cant really give a lot information on it.
Its a relaxing place. Love the geese
Beautiful trail, very clean
This place is best geared to fishermen and mountain bikers. They are trying to make improvements, like a new restroom that was just put in. The road is very steep and windy. Drive carefully. I have not seen as much wildlife in this park as in some others. Beautiful in the fall.
Great trails. If you are going to run the trails get there early because around 10 am there are allot of bikers. No problems sharing the trails, you just have to be aware and ready to let them pass.
Nice quite park/lake
Getting time in the woods is nice. Getting time in the woods with your child, priceless!!!
Ive loved this park since I was a little girl! And its still so much fun just to slow down for a bit and feed the ducks and geese
Fun park for the kids. 6 swings and a few slides. Theres a walking path thats 1/2 mi next to the playground. Very easy for my 5 & 2 year old children to walk. However, people are not picking up after their dogs defecate. The mountain bike trails are fun and challenging too.
Always beautiful. Paths for pets, bikes, or people ample areas to explore. Nice dog run area (Dont really no the usage policy). A little lake to fish on and enough space that you arent reminded of Thunder of Louisville. Peaceful and serene. Make sure to check for ticks before you get back in your car to leave.
I love walking my dogs here!
