About the Location
A Place to Play & Unwind
Located on Madison's southwest side, this 5.77-acre green space offers a fantastic balance of open areas and recreational spots. The multipurpose field gives you plenty of room to toss a frisbee, kick a soccer ball, or simply spread out a blanket and enjoy the outdoors.
If you've got kids in tow, the playground provides a fun spot for the little ones to burn off energy. Basketball enthusiasts can enjoy some casual shots or a pickup game at the single-hoop court - nothing fancy, but fantastic for practicing your jumper or playing a relaxed game of HORSE.
Gathering Under the Sky
Planning a small get-together? The picnic shelter offers a shaded retreat from the summer sun, making it an ideal spot for family lunches or casual meetups with friends. The open layout means you can easily keep an eye on the kids while they explore different areas of the park.
While Waltham Park doesn't feature some of the amenities you might find at Madison's larger parks (no restrooms or drinking fountains here), it is a valuable green oasis for the neighborhood. Sometimes the simple pleasures of a local park are exactly what you need.
