Rivers Edge Park is a serene passive park in Menomonee Falls featuring a large pond with walking paths and natural wildlife viewing opportunities.
This ADA-accessible park occupies land donated to the village by Mr. and Mrs. Donald Stroh in 1968, with roots tracing back to its former use as part of the Village's wastewater treatment facility. The park's transformation from Parkview Settling Basin to the current Rivers Edge Park represents a thoughtful community commitment to green space. Visitors can enjoy the multipurpose trail that circles the pond, making it an ideal destination for leisurely walks and nature observation in a peaceful, natural setting.
The park operates from 6:00 am until one-half-hour after sunset and offers convenient parking and benches throughout the grounds. With its focus on passive recreation and wildlife habitat, Rivers Edge Park provides a quiet escape for residents and visitors seeking to connect with nature without the bustle of more developed recreational facilities. The 5-star rating from visitors reflects the community's appreciation for this well-maintained natural area.
