This is part 3 of the photo series ‘Take a hike.’ If you’re trying to watch your spending this summer, join me and hike to some free hidden gems in the Milwaukee area. (You can also check out part 1 and part 2 of the series on the Times Website.)
Three Bridges Park
If you’re looking for an urban oasis, check out Three Bridges Park. The 24-acre urban oasis is in the Menomonee River Valley between 27th and 37th streets.
The park has biking and walking trails, canoe/kayak launches, 42 community gardens and river access for fishing. The park opened in 2013 and has more than 50,000 visitors each year.
