Scottsdale is great for parks, there are so many great options to go around. But of all the parks in the city, this is my favorite. The Railroad Park has so many features for entertaining the whole family, its simply hard to beat:
- Plenty of open grass space
- Several Ramadas for birthday partying
- Two separate "park" areas. One with swings, gyms, etc. and another with an old adobe village (great for stagecoach robberies and western heists). If you are a mother of boys, this is especially nice.
- The train theme (hence the name)... which means old train cars and tracks throughout
- A mini-train ride and merry-go-round
- Refreshment vendors and a General Store with ice cream
- Beautiful model train museum
This park is always clean, well maintained and they are frequently making updates to improve the experience.
