Have you ever wanted to find a park that was as beautiful as it was functional? As a fellow Colorado Springs Parent, I love a park with shade, and entertainment at every corner. The City of Colorado Springs really made all of those dreams come true with Panorama Park. It is a serious contender for the best park in Colorado Springs. (In my humble opinion.)
Panorama Park in Colorado Springs has many features. Some are even hidden. For example: did you know there is a hot wheel track? Tip: It's in the toddler-sized playground next to the sand pit!
Here are just SOME of the many features Panorama Park in Colorado Springs has to offer:
Splash Pad: On hot summer days, the splash pad becomes a favorite destination for families. With unpredictable spraying, it offers a refreshing and fun way for children to cool off and play. (Tip: You have touch the sensor to turn it on! Look for an image in the concrete with the shape of a foot, and rest your foot there!)
