This is a small urban park situated on a high bank above the Great Miami River. Its walkways are filled with stunning views of the city's skyline that change with the light of day. Sunrise features landscape garden beds with native plants to attract birds, butterflies, and other urban wildlife.

The park borders the city of Dayton's Friendship Park, on the banks of the Great Miami River, which pays homage to the Dayton Sister Cities Program. For visitors, it may be difficult to tell where one park starts and the other ends.

The park is situated above the Great Miami River Trail, which travels both north and south along the river’s edge.

The adjacent Wolf Creek Trail begins at Sunrise MetroPark. It is a 1-mile stretch that links the recreation trail along the Great Miami River to the bikeway that runs along James H. McGee Boulevard.

Park Hours:
Apr. 1 – Oct. 31, 8 AM – 10 PM
Nov. 1 – Mar. 31, 8 AM – 8 PM

Parking is available on the street.
