Welcome

Whether you're looking for a solitary place in nature to take a walk or hike, or are planning a family reunion -- Oakland County Parks have it all.

Highlights of Oakland County Parks include a nature center, five golf courses, wedding and banquet facilities, an  action-packed BMX race track and two waterparks.

The County's extensive Oak Routes Trail Network connects urban to rural, through pristine natural areas, rivers and streams. Cross-country ski, ice fish or just take a stroll through a vastly preserved country-side, before you head back to your busy week ahead.

Get away from it all for a day, or just for an hour -- all right in your own backyard.

Please note that Oakland County Parks and Recreation staff routinely photographs and videotapes guests enjoying Oakland County Parks, facilities, events and equipment. These images may be used in print, visual presentations and on the website to promote the parks system. If you do not wish yourself and/or children to be photographed, please inform the photographer at that time. Enjoy your visit!
