Seven separate play areas are scattered throughout the park, so visiting each takes considerable walking and time.
Best for older kids
The main fort has a tall, fast slide designed for older children, making it challenging for toddlers.
Excellent for picnics
Abundant seating, picnic tables, open grassy areas, and beautiful mountain views make this ideal for longer outdoor meals.
Bring water and sunscreen
Limited shade overall and playgrounds spread across open areas with significant walking in direct sun.
No restroom facilities
Restrooms are not available in the park, which multiple visitors flagged as a significant limitation.
