Norfolk Glen Park

Your Neighborhood Retreat

Positioned in a quiet Aurora cul-de-sac, Norfolk Glen Park offers a cozy 1.6-acre escape from the daily grind. This little green haven provides a peaceful spot where neighbors can connect and families can unwind within the suburban landscape. It's a simple yet charming space that adds a touch of nature to the Norfolk Glen neighborhood, with its quiet residential streets.

Kid-Friendly Fun

The heart of the park is its spacious playground area. The unique playground design goes beyond typical swings and slides, featuring interactive elements and a hidden scavenger hunt woven into the play structures. Kids can hunt for these secret treasures while climbing and exploring.

On most days, you'll discover a nice mix of children making new friends and burning off energy here. It's a popular spot for local families in the neighborhood.

Get Active

If you're feeling sporty, the park offers a baseball field and soccer goals suitable for pickup games, casual play, or team practices. Nothing fancy, but plenty functional for an afternoon of active fun.

Connect with Nature

One of the park's best features is its connection to the High Line Canal Trail, opening up miles of walking and cycling adventures beyond the park boundaries. If you're looking for something more contained, the park's own hiking trails offer a quick nature fix without venturing too far from home.

Gather & Grill

The park makes a great spot for outdoor meals with its designated picnic areas. The covered gazebo provides welcome shade and houses barbecue grills for your cookout needs. Just note that shade is limited in other picnic spots, so bring your sun protection on bright days.

Many residents have made this park their go-to gathering place, strengthening those neighborhood bonds that make a community feel like home.

Good to Know

Heading over for a longer visit? Keep in mind there are no restroom facilities at Norfolk Glen Park. Some parking areas do offer shade, making it comfortable for parents to watch their little ones play.

Since the park sits behind a school, it's worth noting that smoking and drinking aren't allowed on the grounds - keeping things family-friendly for everyone.
