Getting there

Midwood Park from Chantilly

Midwood Park is in Plaza Midwood, about 1.3 miles north from the Chantilly street grid. The usual route is north on the residential streets toward Commonwealth Avenue and Central Avenue — close enough that many residents walk or cycle rather than drive.

Parking at parks and greenway access points is usually in small dedicated lots that fill on fine weekend mornings; arriving early, or walking or cycling in, is the easier option.

Why it earns a place in this guide: a small, deeply shaded park at the center of the Midwood bungalow district. It is included because it is one of the most useful park & trail options within reach of Chantilly, not because of any paid placement.

This is independent editorial coverage. Midwood Park has no relationship with this site, and hours, ownership, pricing and access in Charlotte change frequently — confirm directly before you go.
