Willow Metropark


Willow Metropark is a park in the Huron-Clinton Metroparks system, located on the banks of the Huron River between Lower Huron Metropark to the northwest and Oakwoods Metropark to the southeast. The park consists of a wide variety of trails and recreational areas, including an 18-hole golf course, a skatepark, the Washago Pond, hike/bike trails, a disc golf course,a children's play area, a pool, and a kayak/canoe launch, in addition to groomed cross country ski trails in the winter months.

Bike Trails

In total, approximately 4.5 miles of trails run through the park, all of which are part of the Downriver Linked Greenways System.

Canoeing and Kayaking

There is one entry point for small crafts on the Huron River, located at the Big Bend picnic area along the main bike route. From here, paddlers can paddle upstream towards Lower Huron Metropark and New Boston or downstream towards Oakwoods Metropark and Flat Rock, though portaging is eventually necessary downstream to get around the Flat Rock Dam.
