About Pilgrim Park

Pilgrim Park is a compact neighborhood park of about 1.5 acres on the southeast side of Ann Arbor, reached from Verle Avenue just west of Platt Road. A tree-lined asphalt path leads in from the street. Visitors will find a playground beside a game court, a picnic area, a modest grassy field for pickup games, bike racks, and a drinking fountain. The park is reachable on foot or by bicycle through nearby neighborhood streets, and a bus stop sits a short walk away at Platt and Verle. Smoking, alcohol, and unleashed dogs are not allowed.
