Escaping is a beautiful thing. You’re not leaving everything behind or abandoning everyone you know forever — just for a little while.
Those in Champaign-Urbana are as lucky as loaded dice because there is no better place to escape than Meadowbrook Park.
Meadowbrook Park allows you to walk along a path that does not bombard you with advertisements or swallow you in crowds. It lets you peacefully enjoy the amusement of a giant rabbit or the complex relationship between two literal “hammerheads” — statues, of course.
Sitting along Race Street in Urbana, this serene location is filled with winding paths that stretch for miles, littered with unique sculptures to accompany you on your journey.
Meadowbrook Park beckons old and young alike with its multitudes of gardens, where maybe one of these days you will actually stop and smell the roses.
This is a playground perfect for the you of a decade ago, while also neighboring a retirement community for the you many years away.
Whether you desire a Sunday picnic, a Wednesday morning stroll or a Friday afternoon rendezvous with a deer, Meadowbrook Park allows you to take it slow the way you like.
