Lime Kiln Park in Menomonee Falls
Smack in the middle of downtown, this 19-acre Village of Menomonee Falls park spans both sides of the Menomonee River between Main Street and Arthur Avenue. The park is named after the Garwin Mace Lime Kilns which operated on the site in the late 19th century. A paved multi-use trail runs the length of the park, leading visitors past the preserved lime kilns, rock outcroppings, and the namesake Menomonee Falls. The narrow gorge between rock outcroppings has been called the “dells of the Menomonee River.”
It’s not a large park, but it has a few nooks and crannies to satisfy a bit of exploration for anyone who wants to leave the paved trail behind.
There are benches and lights along the paved trail. No other amenities.
