Parking

Waverly Park has 2 parking lots, one at playground and one past the lake at the turn around / dog park. Use either lot.

All trails will lead you back to one of these lots so it is difficult to get lost. 

Trail Access

Waverly Park has 3 trails that are intersecting loops. Both parking lots have trail access. It is possible to ride all three segments from either lot.


Sugested route to ride all three segments:
After Fresh Air segment riders can walk up to road and ride back towards the start of Clinic segment vs finishg the loop. After the Clinic segment riders should continune on to the start of the Twisting Bends segment. After the Twising Bends segment riders can backtrack or complete the whole twisting bends loop.
