Oh my gosh what a fabulous new playground in Grafton! I think it opened last year (?) but recently…read morewe made our first visit after seeing it shared online. It's so vast, colorful, and inviting to kids of all ages. We have a toddler, and our nephew who is a similar age, was also with us. Sometimes playgrounds can be a little too high/advanced for their age, but All My Friends Playground has a wide selection of areas to play on, including lower and less intense obstacles. Tons of slides and swings, climbing gyms, merry go round, teeter totter, and more. Plus there is a massive (and wonderfully colorful) butterfly that spreads shade over the middle of the playground. Other great parts about this park: it's completely fenced in by a lovely pickets that are all engraved by local families. It keeps all the kiddos safe and contained. Also the squishy flooring is a huge plus. It's so comfy to run around on and makes for a safer place if anyone falls. Really love the creativity and fun that went into creating this new play area. Thanks Grafton, we'll be back!

The bridge was built by the Town of Cedarburg to replace a number of periodically washed out bridges. Pine logs were cut and milled in Baraboo, fitted into place in a lattice truss construction with 3x10 inch planks secured by 2 inch hardwood pins, eliminating the use of nails or bolts, and floored by 3 inch planking. The Ozaukee County Board in 1940 coted to assume the preservation and maintenance of the bridge. While the bridge is not open for vehicular traffic and there is a concrete and steel bridge adjacent, you can absolutely walk the bridge or even bicycle it. The nearby park has benches and picnic tables and a building with a picnic shelter complete with power outlets and public restrooms. There's plenty of space in the park to spread out and enjoy the second, smaller bridge. Plenty of parking. This is a great spot for your photo ops and in fact a couple was getting their engagement photos done here when I visited. [Review 20675 overall - 245 in Wisconsin - 1656 of 2023.]

This is a 28 acre park located along the west shore of the Milwaukee River in an area that used to…read morebe known as Milwaukee Falls. (Milwaukee Falls was also the birthplace of Paramount Records.) The park offers a large pavillion that can be rented, an open air octagon picnic shelter, an archery range, a horseshoe pitch, a 9-hole disc golf course, sand volleyball, fishing and a canoe launch on the Milwaukee River. Or, you can just relax and listen to the soothing sounds of the rapids that were once known as Milwaukee Falls. The site was the location of a large limestone operation in the late 19th Century. The Milwaukee Falls Lime Company was incorporated in 1890 and produced lime here until about 1920. At one time, there were five lime kilns here, at a time when Wisconsin was third in national lime production. On the southern end of the park is the open area left by the quarrying operation. A branch railroad line brought fuel in and hauled lime out, the abutments of a long-abandoned railroad bridge remain on the rivers's edge. Why kilns? Silurian dolomite, or limestone, is found in great abundance in eastern Wisconsin. It is comprised of calcium, magnesium, carbon and oxygen. When heated to temperatures approaching 2,000º the limestone breaks down, releasing carbon dioxide and the remaining powder, lime, was used for construction (plaster and mortar) and for whitewash. Farmers used it for soil conditioning and it was used in the tanning process by leather tanneries. In time, other chemicals became available and lime fell out of favor. Both pastoral and historical in one spot, Lime Kiln Park is a great place to play, admire history, or just listen to the relaxing sound of the Milwaukee Rapids. (Other extant lime kilns in the area include Lime Kiln Park in Menomonee Falls, Hadfield Lime Company in Waukesha on inaccessible private property, and Trimborn Farms in Greenfield.)

The park has a nice pavilion area and clean, well-kept bathrooms, which makes it comfortable for longer visits. Throughout the trails and overlooks, there are several benches dedicated in memory of loved ones. These add a very touching and reflective feel to the experience and make it more than just a hike--it's a place to slow down and appreciate the moment. Overall, it's a beautiful, quiet place for nature, reflection, and lake views, and definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

Great hike in lovely Port Washington WI, just north of Milwaukee. Ample free parking. Not to say it…read moredoesn't get crowded, but it wasn't bad when we were there on a weekend. There is a paved trail which isn't too long, but is ADA compliant so that's a plus. We did a three mile loop, checking out the bluffs and taking the stairs down to the secluded little beach. Lots of poison ivy....which is normal to the area, but really it's best to avoid it by staying on trail and covering up. Seemed like leashed and/or well behaved dogs were welcome. Worth checking out.

Garrison's Glen - A lovely tribute and gesture to a young man who passed away…read more Location 2231 Pioneer Road - Mequon, WI 53092 Size 22 Acres Description This is a nice park if you are looking for a short walk. But even though it's small, treasures for the eyes await visitors. The paths are well maintained grass paths. They keep them mowed very well. They have bird houses within in the glen erected. There can be quite a bit of activity from birds so it's a great place to bird watch if that's your jam, or jelly. Tons of trees, most I cannot identify because I've never bothered to learn. But! It is an excellent mix of old trees and newer trees. There are some absolutely stunning trees to see. I took pictures but it doesn't do it justice. This property has maybe 4-5 paths you can take which often overlap one another. It's very peaceful here. There is a large bog? Swamp? Marsh? Wetland? Whatever the proper nomenclature is. There is a big really, really , really wet area in the middle with lots of wetland plants. Points of Interest There is a multitude of plant life. Asters, Wild Cucumber, Jewelweed, False Sunflowers, Horsetail, Golden Alexander, Dogwood with some of the most vibrant red branches I have even seen and grapes. Like, grapes taking over the place. It's Planet of the grapes there. The birds! So many. Be Aware It is always wet. Always. There's a swamp in the middle so be prepared for soggy, muddy ground. There are occasionally branches hanging down in the middle of the walking paths so keep your eyes sharp! Mosquitos - Holy f-ing hell mosquitos. They are more ferocious than strippers in Dothan Alabama. The Entry/Exit way. It is seriously step and there is some erosion from where the asphalt meets the gravel and if you go over it too fast it will cause your car to hit the pavement HARD. Dog Friendly? Yes- As long as you keep them on the leash and clean up after them. They even provide a trash bin at the entrance so you can throw the brown sausages away and not even have to worry about taking them home in your car to dispose. Vixen Says There were no gila monsters, so that gets a paw up. Lots of good sniffs, another paw awarded. Delicious  grass so another paw. Three paws and a bark!

There is a pathway leading north from this beach into a bird preserve and the lower beach park that has benches and a gazebo. There is also a veterans memorial.
