Carpenter-Ridgeway Park

Carpenter-Ridgeway Park is a public recreational area located in Madison, Wisconsin. The park is situated within the Carpenter-Ridgeway neighborhood, which straddles Madison's main thoroughfare and is approximately five miles from downtown Madison.

The park features a secluded playground that is positioned right on the Starkweather Creek Bike Path and is surrounded by wooded trails. This location provides visitors with easy access to both the playground facilities and the natural surroundings.

Covering nearly 4 acres of open green space, Carpenter-Ridgeway Park offers paved running and biking trails that are popular among local joggers, especially in the morning. The park's location adjacent to the Bridges Golf Course means that visitors can often hear golfers teeing off at the nearby 18-hole golfing complex.

The park serves as a valuable green space within the largely commercial Carpenter-Ridgeway area, providing residents and visitors with an opportunity for outdoor recreation and relaxation.
