Dearborn High Park

A Green Haven by the Rouge

Tucked near West Downtown Dearborn, Dearborn High Park is one of those special places where nature and recreation blend perfectly. What makes this green space truly stand out is its gorgeous setting alongside the Rouge River, which adds a peaceful backdrop to whatever activity brings you here.

The park stretches across many acres, giving plenty of room for both quiet moments and community celebrations. It's the kind of place that transforms with the seasons - hosting the exciting Martian Marathon during racing season and becoming the lively heart of the community during the Dearborn Homecoming festival, when thousands come together to celebrate.

From Picnics to Pathways

Need a spot for a family gathering? The spacious picnic shelters here are meant for anything from birthday celebrations to casual weekend lunches. If you're feeling more active, grab your racket for a game on the tennis courts or head to one of the ball fields for some friendly competition.

When winter blankets the park in snow, the natural slopes transform into sledding areas where laughter and excitement fill the crisp air. And for those who love to explore, Dearborn High Park functions as the gateway to the Rouge River Gateway Trail - a wonderful path that invites you to walk or cycle through some of the area's most beautiful natural scenery.

If you're looking for a peaceful afternoon or an active day outdoors, this park offers a little piece of nature right in the heart of the community.
