Gilbrook Natural Area is a 27.22-acre park in northeastern Winooski with ponds, wetlands streams and pools, and pine forests. The park has more than a mile of interconnected trails for walkers, joggers, dog walkers, as well as occasional mountain biking and cross country skiing.
The park is centered around Winooski’s reservoir, which is a popular fishing spot and hosts an annual fishing derby. The park is large enough to hold native habitat, such as birds and deer. Gilbrook is surrounded by industrial parks to the West and St. Michael’s College and the National Guard to the East. The City of Winooski Public Works is also housed at the edge of Gilbrook, just above the reservoir.
