Great place to watch the rafters practice and meet other people. We'll taken care of park. Great places to sit next to the river with a very nice walking trail.

I was in Wausau in August during the 2024 U.S. Canoe/ Kayak Freestyle National Championships & World Team Trials. The park itself is beautiful, well maintained, and clean. Very nice rock theater type seating, bring some padding if needed, lol. An additional benefit was the farmer's market adjacent to the park, which was pretty large and abundant.

It's a great walk. We happened to be there to watch the competition and it was so fun to see what professional kayakers can do.

Situated in-between Oak Park to the south and Big Bull Falls Park to the north, this is another of Wausau's gems. The Whitewater Park area of the Riverwalk is gorgeous, and a must see! This is a championship kayaking course, and people come from all over to compete here. We've even had a presidential visit. When not being used for kayaking, this area offers some beautiful views and is a great place to walk. Parking, restrooms, trashcans are all in the surrounding area. There are several Pokestops and gyms here, and all along the Riverwalk.
