Bogert Park, Public park in Bozeman, United States.
Bogert Park is a public park in Bozeman, Montana, at 1,472 metres above sea level, about 0.7 km from the city centre. Its grounds hold open lawns, tennis courts, an outdoor swimming pool, play equipment for young children and a covered shelter. Baldy Mountain rises 12.2 km to the southwest.
The park was established in the 1920s when the city purchased the land from the heirs of John V. Bogert, Bozeman's first mayor. This purchase reflected the growing community desire for public recreational space.
Bogert Park lies about 0.67 km from central Bozeman, in the Gallatin County landscape where springs and irrigation channels feed the grounds. The park's name honours John V. Bogert, the city's first mayor, whose heirs sold the land to the city. Locals use the open lawns and shelter for summer gatherings.
Bogert Park sits about 0.7 km from downtown Bozeman, at 1,472 m elevation, so it can be walked to from the city centre. The ground is level on the park side, with the Bridger Range rising to the west and Baldy Mountain about 12 km away. Facilities such as the outdoor pool operate seasonally, so confirm opening before a visit.
A creek runs through the park and was recently restored to flow naturally through the landscape. This restoration effort shows the community's commitment to protecting local waterways and natural spaces.
