A Day on the Glass City Riverwalk

The Maumee riverfront is becoming one continuous experience, and the best way to understand it is to walk it. Start on the east bank.

East Toledo

Glass City Metropark

The riverfront flagship on the east bank of the Maumee: The Ribbon skating trail, Market Hall, a sledding hill, and front-row views of downtown. Open 7 AM to dark.

Glass City Metropark is the anchor: sledding hill, wetland walks, and the pavilion that hosts everything from concerts to markets. From here, The Ribbon is steps away.

The Ribbon at Glass City Metropark

A year-round skating trail and gathering place within Glass City Metropark.

Skate in winter, roll in summer — then cross the river and put some history under your feet.

National Museum of the Great Lakes

Set right on the riverfront, it's where Great Lakes history comes alive for the whole family. Bring the kids and soak up that Toledo waterfront.

The museum boat alone is worth the ticket. Back outside, follow the water south.

Riverfront

Promenade Park

Where the riverfront comes alive with live music and festivals. Bring the family and settle in for the city's best party.

Promenade is where downtown meets the river — check what is on its stage tonight before you plan your evening.

Warehouse District

Middlegrounds Metropark

Downtown's first Metropark, built where the old rail yard met Swan Creek and the Maumee. Kayak launch, riverfront trails, and the city's favorite off-leash dog park.

Finish at Middlegrounds under the bridges: the quietest stretch of riverfront in the city, and the best sunset view on this list.
