Eastside parks and playgrounds

Can you have too many playgrounds? I don’t think so.

While your go-to neighborhood park is so handy, sometimes you want to stretch your playground legs and try out a new spot. Meet up with a pal and let your kids explore some of the best Eastside playgrounds, both old and new favorites. Pick one for a play destination and it just might end up a fixture on your regular recreation route. Ready? Let’s go play.

First stop: City of Duvall Park at the Ridge at Big Rock
