A welcoming community park
Ohio Township Park is an 18-acre public recreation park at 3511 Libbert Road in Newburgh, Indiana. Located beside the Ohio Township fire station and Phoenix Event Center, it combines walking trails, a lake, an inclusive playground, a seasonal splash pad, sports courts, and gathering spaces.
Accessible pathways and play equipment are central to the park’s design, creating opportunities for visitors of different ages and abilities to enjoy time outdoors.
Walking trails & community connections
The park offers trails for walking and exercise, with outdoor workout equipment providing additional recreation opportunities. Its lake adds a scenic feature to the grounds, while shelters and seating provide places to pause during a visit.
Ohio Township Park also connects with the surrounding Warrick Trails network. Nearby routes include the High Pointe Trail and Wellness Corridor Trail, allowing visitors to extend an outing beyond the park.
These connections link recreation areas with nearby neighborhoods, restaurants, businesses, and healthcare facilities.
A verified total for trails inside the park was not established. Distances shown by Warrick Trails describe particular routes or connections—not necessarily the park’s internal trail mileage.
Inclusive playground & splash pad
The township describes the park as an inclusive recreation space, with accessible pathways, inclusive play equipment, and specialized seating areas. The playground and splash pad are major attractions for families, complementing the trails and sports facilities.
The splash pad is seasonal. Check township announcements for current operating dates and hours rather than assuming the water features are available whenever the park is open.
Inclusive features are part of the park’s design, but this guide does not establish an accessibility rating for every trail, activity, or facility. Contact the township about specific access needs.
Lake scenery & gathering spaces
The lake provides a scenic element within the recreation grounds. Shelters, seating, and other gathering spaces give visitors places to pause between a walk, exercise, and play.
Fishing, boating, and a measured lake-loop distance were not confirmed. Check with the township before planning water-based activities.
