About the Location

A Stream Runs Through It

Nestled in Greensboro, Latham Park stretches across 126 acres of diverse landscape that changes with each season. At the heart of the park flows an active stream that winds through the grounds, adding a peaceful soundtrack to your visit and enhancing the natural beauty all around.

With plenty of open spaces fantastic for throwing a frisbee, having a picnic, or just sprawling out with a good book, Latham offers room to breathe. These clearings give way to wooded sections that provide welcome shade in summer and gorgeous colors in fall.

Get Moving

Feeling active? The park features a network of walking trails that meander throughout the property. The dedicated fitness trail offers a chance to work up a sweat while enjoying the scenery - much better than staring at a gym wall, right?

Cyclists will appreciate the long bike path that cuts through the park. It's particularly great for kids still finding their balance on two wheels. Just note that there's an underpass at Wendover where you'll need to hop off your bike for safety reasons.

Sports enthusiasts haven't been forgotten either. The park houses multiple ball fields including softball fields where you can catch local games or organize your own friendly match. There are also well-maintained tennis courts if racquet sports are more your thing.

Skaters' Corner

If concrete waves are what you're after, Latham Park's skate park delivers without the crowds you might find at other local spots. While not massive, it features a bowl and various elements that cater to different skill levels, from newcomers to experienced riders.

The relatively uncrowded atmosphere makes it ideal for beginners who need space to practice without an audience or pressure. Early birds get the worm here - arriving early means snagging the best parking spots.

Everyone's Welcome

Latham Park was designed with everyone in mind, offering several accessibility features that ensure visitors with varying mobility needs can enjoy the park's offerings.

From the natural areas to the recreational facilities, the park strives to be a place where the entire community can connect with nature and each other, regardless of ability. These thoughtful touches help make Latham Park more accessible for the whole community.
