About Waverly Park

Natural Haven

Positioned in the Wyndham Downs neighborhood of Lexington, Waverly Park is a mid-sized sanctuary where you can escape the everyday hustle. This quiet gem offers a peaceful retreat where nature takes center stage.

At the heart of the park sits a charming forested area, with additional trees lining the edges to create a genuine green oasis. Keep an eye out for the various native plant species taking root around the grounds - they're not just pretty to look at, they're enhancing the park's ecological footprint too.

Get Moving

Feeling like a casual stroll? The park's 0.7-mile walking trail accessible from Twain Ridge Road is excellent for clearing your mind or getting in some light exercise. There's something incredibly calming about wandering through this little pocket of tranquility nestled within Lexington's suburban landscape.

If you're after something more active, the park offers tennis and basketball courts. They might show a bit of character (aka wear and tear), but they're completely functional for a friendly match. Bringing the little ones? They'll love burning off energy at the well-kept playground area.

The Basics

While Waverly Park flies somewhat under the radar in its residential setting, it covers all the essential needs. You'll discover a parking lot where you can leave your car, and nearby, a portable restroom for when nature calls in more ways than one.

This park is ideal for those seeking a simple, natural escape. With its blend of wooded areas and open green spaces, it offers a refreshing outdoor experience without any fuss or frills - just the way many locals like it.
