The Scituate Skatepark is a town-owned facility situated amongst tennis and basketball courts. It literally wraps around a street hockey rink! The concrete park features a mini ramp, a pump track, and a street area. It is located next to Kazlousky Park, behind Scituate’s new Gates Middle School, at 460 First Parish Road.

 

 

Features

The Scituate Skatepark was designed by Spohn Ranch and constructed in 2016 by Misiano Skate Parks.

This land is within the region of the Massachusett (or Massachuseuk). To learn more about local Native American tribes, we encourage you to interact with their members. The Mattakeeset band of the Massachusett, and the Massachusett tribe at Ponkapoag, both share information on their websites.

Trail Description

A short paved trail connects the park to Cedarwood Road.

Habitats and Wildlife

This mostly-grassy property has some scattered maple, sassafras, pine and oak trees.

The Scituate Skatepark is located within the watershed of First Herring Brook, which finds its source in Scituate in the area west of Route 3A, between First Parish Road and Old Oaken Bucket Road. It flows through the First Herring Brook Reservoir, and downstream to Old Oaken Bucket Pond, passing through two dams. Below the historic Stockbridge Grist Mill, at the Driftway, it flows into Herring River, a major tributary to the North River. Herring River flows into the North River just upstream of its outlet to the sea.
