H.C. Bradley Park

Winter Wonderland

When the snow falls, H.C. Bradley Park transforms into a winter playground that locals absolutely treasure. This urban hideaway is best known for its perfect skiing and sledding hill that beckons both kids and the young at heart during the chillier months. There's something magical about the way this hill catches just the right amount of snow, making it an ideal spot to experience Wisconsin winters at their finest.

Once the snow melts, the park quietly returns to its role as a simple but charming green space - a bit like that friend who really shines during one season but remains pleasantly reliable year-round.

Location and Layout

Situated on Amherst Drive in the Village of Shorewood Hills (a cozy Madison suburb), this modest 1.5-acre park might not seem impressive on paper, but what it lacks in size, it makes up for in character.

Situated in a primarily residential neighborhood, you'll discover it's just a short walk for many locals, making it one of those wonderful community spaces where neighbors regularly cross paths - especially when there's fresh powder on the ground.

Practical Info

The Village of Shorewood Hills takes care of maintaining this little treasure, keeping it open to anyone who wants to visit. You can enjoy the park daily from 6AM to 10PM, giving you plenty of time to squeeze in some outdoor fun, whether that's an early morning walk or an evening sledding session under the winter sky.
