Downtown Parks

City parks and open space improve our physical and psychological health, strengthen our communities, and make our neighborhoods more attractive places to live and work.

Located along Bayfield Street between the Washburn Museum and Cultural Center and the U.S. Forest Service Washburn District Ranger Station, Legion Park provides the eastern entrance to the City's central business district. This open area, maintained by the Washburn Beautification Foundation, recognizes the service and sacrifice of citizens called to national service.

Wikdal Park is located in downtown Washburn at the intersection of Bayfield Street and 3rd Avenue West. The park provides a friendly respite from the bustle of activities along the City's main street. Wikdal Park affords the visitor a refreshing opportunity to relax under shaded trees in the heat of the day amidst the flower gardens maintained by the Washburn Beautification Foundation.
