Woodridge Park

About this park

Woodridge Park is one of serveral areas managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at Clinton Lake. Located on the Northwest shore of the lake, Woodridge encompasses 454 acres of oak/hickory associated forests consisting of burr oak, elm, black walnut, ash, hackberry, shag bark hickory, honey locust and Osage orange trees. Over 150 acres of the park has been converted to native grasses such as Big and Little Bluestem and Indian Grass. With abundant wildlife such as red fox, bobcat, coyote, white-tailed deer and varius species of water fowl, the George Latham trail provides excellent opportunities for bird watching and nature activities. Clinton Lake’s wooded shoreline, clean water,and native grass fields provide a beautiful setting for recreation in Kansas. Shoreline development has been limited in an effort to preserve as much of the natural setting as possible.
