Coolidge Park is a family-friendly property managed by the City of Pittsfield. The park is perfect for a short day of outdoor recreation in the Berkshires. On the park's west side, visitors will notice an adult fitness playground structure. Overall, this structure is ideal for a short workout.
Upon leaving the athletic playground, visitors will find a wide walking trail alongside an expansive field. Visitors can bring a soccer ball and practice on this lawn. Then, beyond the grassy area, there is an excellent view of a Western Massachusetts wetland ecosystem. Plenty of wildlife species, including birds and amphibians, are easily visible in this habitat. Also, eventually, the walking trail heads into a hardwood forest and provides further wildlife-viewing opportunities.
There is parking for Coolidge Park off Atlantic Avenue, just across from Taubert Avenue.
