Hawks Bluff Park
About Hawks Bluff Park
Acquired through a developer donation, this 30-acre property is one of the most biologically diverse parks in our system. Aided by a $300,000 grant, significant development was undertaken on this property. This is the first “program-driven,” community-sized park in the District system. This means that this park does not have formal athletic field areas; rather it has been designed to support a wide variety of recreational program areas. The park is home to a playground featuring slides, monkey bars, climbing structures and accessible swings. As with all of our community-size parks, the Hawk’s Bluff Park has large picnic shelters available for rent by District residents. Call 630-879-5235 for rental information.
