Lithia Park

In the hub of downtown sits Lithia Park, Ashland's crown jewel. Lithia is a 93-acre vista of emerald lawns, tennis courts (pickleball), a sand-pit volleyball court, picnic areas, colorful landscaping and playground equipment.  Free Lithia Park Nature Walks. Enjoy beautiful Lithia Park’s natural history three days a week (four during July and August), rain or shine. Trained volunteer naturalists from the Ashland Parks & Recreation Commission will lead an easy, interesting, 1.5-hour nature walk through Lithia Park. Topics include: trees, flowers, birds, climate, water, geology, and the history of the park. Nature walks are free and all ages are welcome. Please meet at the park entrance, across from the Plaza in Ashland. Walks are provided by the Ashland Parks & Recreation Department and will take place from 10 to 11:30 a.m. on Saturdays (July and August only), Sundays, Wednesdays, and Fridays; from the first of May through the end of September.
