Take some time to unwind and visit one of the many parks throughout Middlesex County.  Enjoy playgrounds and splashpads, sports fields and courts, or just savour some quiet time alone with your thoughts.

Optimist Skate Park

The Mount Brydges Optimist Skatepark has been a staple of the town for a number of years now. It has all the typical ramps and obstacles one would expect to find at one of these parks. The pyramid at the center of the park is short and great for beginners. The ramps on either side of the park do not have any coping bars, but there is plenty of space to play on.

Poplar Hill Park

Poplar Hill Park is used largely by residents for picnics and various gatherings such as the Poplar Hill Picnic, given the large pavilion that can accommodate up to five events at once. Also located at the park is a playground, two lit ball diamonds, a grandstand, monument, historic log house, and washroom facilities.
