Lexington’s Hamburg area features so much new development but there is a great park tucked in not far from the hustle and bustle of all the shopping and dining.  Pleasant Ridge Park is just off Pleasant Ridge Drive and features a playground, dog pad (.5 acre), grassy areas, and a path that connects to the newly opened Brighton Rail Trail!

Enjoy greenspace, picnic areas, and of course a fun playground. With room to spread out this is a great space for fun for all ages.

There is a shelter located next to the parking area. You can find restrooms, a water fountain with a dog bowl fountain, and tables.

There is a small dog park at Pleasant Ridge Park as well.

The playground features two climbing features, two regular swings, two bucket swings as well as some additional small pieces of equipment like a see saw.
