This is a lovely park with an expansive lawn to walk. It features a small craft boat launch, a butterfly garden, resident groundhog and tree walk. The tree walk includes 13 specimens that are marked with smart tags. Bring your smart phone and scan the QR code to learn more about each species. As you walk south west through the park you encounter wooded areas with paths, and the trailhead for the Glacial Drumlin trail. Don’t miss the pedestrian bridge for beautiful views of the Fox River. There are two additional sites for bringing your small craft in/out of the Fox River, here. Continue further along the trail and you will reach marsh with viewing deck and boardwalk. If you are lucky, you may glimpse the beaver that resides here. This park is great for cycling, walking, birdwatching, and enjoying other wildlife. The city Rec Dept also has a building on the premises that hosts programs. Do bring your bug spray when the season calls for it, and be aware that a portion of this park is prone to flooding. This park is currently a popular place for location-based gaming on community days.

The trail-head for riding the Glacial Drumlin trail west. The water fountains and restroom are closed so bring your own water for the ride.

Great scenery. Wide paths. Bike riders courteous. Announce coming up behind. Lots of shade.

Always love to go walking beautiful area

The Hubz & I love to take our Kado down the Boardwalk, to check out the wildlife.

This area is a popular spot for me, probably because of the Timber Trestle. Bike trail, hiking trail, lots of nature. Like most places I review, great for photography! The river attracts LOTS of wildlife. An old timber trestle bridge makes for incredible shots! As part of the landscape, underneath, on the tracks for nature... Love it!

A really cute park with some nice hiking paths. Lots of litter and debris around when I was there, so not the most active parks and rec staff

Beautiful place to explore or to bring a lunch.

I like to walk the boardwalk in the morning. So peaceful & serene.

Good for a walk even in the snow!

A calming river in the Heart of Waukesha

Great place for kids to go on field trips! They all love riding there bikes on the trails!

Loved this place growing up in Waukesha brings back memories of going into the river with friends on a school field trip to discover new life of the river. Great place to take a hike or picnic with kids.

Perfect for walking and feeling the harmony of nature

They have great service

Paved trail for walking, biking even a wheelchair walk is ok here. Areas that teach school aged kids about wildlife that is native to the sanctuary. This place has been turned into a learning experience as well as a beautiful walking area to enjoy.

Fun field trip to explore nature with kids during a summer school class. All the kids got to put on waiters and collect specimens from the river and then view them with microscopes.

Great outdoor space along the river. Was hoping to see some birds but wasnt the day for that. Ill be back for picnics along the water.

Love the people and the puppies!!!

Nice place to walk around.
