Foxshire Park

Where to Find This Green Oasis

Situated in the residential streets of Westminster, Colorado, Foxshire Park spreads across 6.42 acres of public recreational space. This neighborhood park offers a space where locals and visitors can take a break from everyday life.

Trails & Natural Beauty

What makes Foxshire particularly special is its connection to larger open spaces. You can easily access the Farmer's High Line Canal and Mushroom Pond directly from the park - meant for when you're in the mood to explore a bit of nature without leaving the city.

The park connects to the Farmer's Highline Canal trail, a regional pathway that's ideal if you're looking to extend your outdoor adventure. The paved trail follows the canal with a flat, easy-to-navigate surface. If you're seeking shade on warmer days, you'll appreciate the generous tree coverage along most of the route. For those tracking their steps, a walk from Federal to Huron and back covers about 4 miles.

The pathway blooms with flowers during growing seasons, adding splashes of color to your journey. Need a breather? Several benches dot the trail for quick rests. Just a friendly tip: consider bringing bug spray during certain times of the year - nature comes with all its creatures!

Ways to Play

Foxshire Park balances both active and quiet recreation areas, making it a good fit regardless of your energy level or age.

Feel like having an outdoor meal? Fire up the BBQ grill for a casual picnic. Basketball enthusiasts can shoot some hoops at the available facilities. And if you're a dog parent, this is a pleasant spot for walks, although you might occasionally encounter some off-leash pups despite the rules.

Kid-Friendly Playground

The playground here is thoughtfully designed for families with children spanning different age groups. Parents of toddlers will particularly appreciate the bucket swings that keep the littlest ones secure while they enjoy the thrill of swinging.

Some parts of the playground feature slides with steeper stairs that might be tricky for very young children to climb without help. Conveniently positioned along the trail system, the playground makes for an easy stop if the kids need to burn off some energy during your walk.

Ongoing Enhancements

The park is currently getting some TLC with an irrigation renovation project underway. You'll notice materials staged in the native areas as work progresses.

These improvements should help maintain the park's functionality for the future.
