Milwaukee River Greenway

Beautiful. It's easy to forget that the part of the trail that parallels the river is in the city. Parking is on the street, but was plentiful during the week. The trail is just dirt but easy walking. One foot bridge was out, probably due to the recent flood, but it was not difficult to get around it. Walked around 2 hrs including part of the Oakleaf trail that meets up with it. The Oakleaf is paved.

Gorgeous! Also a great place for foraging! I gotta bring my fishing pole here as well. The nearby beer garden is nice, too.

Easily one of the busiest trails we visited recently The Milwaukee River Greenway in Estabrook Park has a great location central to Whitefish Bay, Shorewood, Glendale and Milwaukees Northeast side. With access to walking hiking and biking trails including a portion of the Oak Leaf Trail the hiking experience of the Greenway is remarkably able to maintain a rather immersive natural hike along the river despite its proximity to highly trafficked roads. With a variety of branching paths and visuals walking the Greenway is definitely a pleasant way to experience the Milwaukee River and get a nature filled afternoon without having to travel too far.

Gorgeous park. If you've never been, please go you'll enjoy it! This park is clean and well kept. Althought some of the holes are a little short the disc golf course provided a nice challenge! Well shaded with large trees. Many walking paths even a river walk under the beer garden. I hear there's even a skate park but I didn't see it while there. I'll definitely be returning and recommending this park to friends and family

This is a peaceful and often overlooked park. I think most people pass by without realizing it is a park? And the park has a lot to offer if you want to relax, suntan, have a picnic, go fishing, cool off by the river or watch birds. Its also right next to the oak leaf trail too! This park is right along Silver Spring Drive so its close to Bayshore and the shopping area yet its far enough away to be very peaceful...especially if you head a little bit south into the park. There I often hear birds calling. A few of the birds sound like falcons or hawks? And that makes perfect sense too since a good chunk of this park is wooded forest. I do love hiking in the forest along the trails here. And in summer its nice to sit on the rocks along the river too. Very peaceful. I like to sit and watch the wildlife. And the huge grassy areas would be great for suntanning! Plus its very beautiful when the trees are blooming too! This park is just north of Lincoln Park and connects to it via the Oak Leaf Trail. And I walk through this area all the time. Even in winter. And yes, a few times I had even walked through the deep snow too! What an adventure I had over here. And if you want something to read while here, there is a Little Free Library right across the street from this park too. The bike trail goes through the park too. There are no kiddie play structures here and no park house or bathrooms. Its just a large green area along with forest.
