Alice C. Wainwright Park highlights

Nature abounds at Alice C. Wainwright Park. There is a closed canopy forest, Brickell Hammock, that features what once was a widespread tropical hardwood hammock, although there is no direct access for visitors. From a lower elevation point, it is possible to see the exposed limestone outcrop of Miami Rock Ridge.

The park itself features a spacious lawn with several picnic shelters and barbecue areas, all of which are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Another recreational facility is a large playground for kids to enjoy. Leashed dogs are welcome to the park, too.
