Westlands Park in Greenwood Village - A community Park that is anything but Ordinary!
Located in the heart of Greenwood Village, lies Westlands Park, a true gem on the scope of Denver metro area
parks. The park is quite large (more than 12 acres) and is more than just your average playground.
My own childrens' favorite activity is running in the fountains, in the summer of course. Adjacent to a shady hill lies a variety of fountains to run, jump and play in. And just nearby is one of the picnic shelters, perfect for that afternoon snack or evening picnic. Mountain views abound and the the buildings from the nearby Denver Tech Center (DTC) are visible in the distance.
The playground area itself has 3 distinct different areas and offers activities for every age level and is a big part of what makes this park so special. The littlest ones will be comfortable in the toddler play area, which is still larger than most playgrounds. Even the typical monkey bars are spiced up with zip lines and climbing activities. Even the older set will be content with rock climbing activities for the more adventurous. Grassy areas and picnic shelters are located throughout the playground area, perfect for watching your little ones play.
The large fields are are a fantastic area for kite flying or impromptu games and some community sporting teams practice here as well. Homes in the nearby neighborhoods border the fields on the far side.
The far end of the park includes an in-line hockey rink and another picnic shelter. There are several restrooms throughout the park as well.
