Oakledge Park has a variety of offerings including two beaches, rocky lakeside cliffs, the Burlington Earth Clock, bocce ball courts, a playground with universal access features, tennis courts, picnic shelters, and a tree house. Lesser known are the networks of trails inside the park. Winding from north to south, the Burlington Greenway Bike Path offers a route through the middle of the park. In the southern portion of the park, the Upper and Lower Wetland offer places to watch birds. Dirt trails connect the wetlands through the woods and mowed paths offer ways through the new plantings.
The most accessible route in the park, as indicated on the map, is a 6-foot wide paved path with sections of hard packed gravel and stone dust. Slopes are typically around 4% but some short sections reach 16% grade. Cross slopes are very subtle. Accessible parking and restrooms as well as drinking water are all available. See Trail Access Information below for more information about this Accessible Experience.
Trail conditions can change without warning. Trail last assessed: 8/29/2024
