A beautiful park near the University! Lots of room to run. I think dogs are allowed too!Fourth of July fireworks sometimes set off here too.
This is a great outdoor park for enjoying Reno's great weather. Lots of open space, dog park, ponds, trails, frisbee golf, and hosts events like the hot air balloon races.
Walking paths, playground, huge dinosaurs for the kids, well manicured gardens for the adults! Enjoy an afternoon wandering around the park! On a hot day, there is plenty of shade here!
We love RSR but some ( a lot) of the people who take their dogs to the park are pigs. There is dog poop everywhere in and outside of the dog park. I even pointed out an offender to one of the park personnel and he said there was nothing he could do. The park has a bad rep with vets because of several parvovirus outbreaks due to unsanitary conditions. Not sure what can be done...park workers need the authority to enforce the laws / statutes. Otherwise the museum & buildings are very nice.
We gathered at Peavine Pavillion and had a great time. There were things for the kids and the adults just enjoyed being together. The photos turned out great in this wonderful setting.
Attended a birthday party for a 6 year old there. Plenty of things for kids to do and plenty of tables to sit at.
If you're looking for a peaceful place to walk and enjoy the sounds and sights of birds, rabbits, lizards, dragonflies, butterflies, bees and ducks while walking the paths - this is the place! To enjoy the views of the park take the trails up into the Groves. Walk along the pond to visit the ducks. Sit on the many benches throughout the gardens and take in the views. If you park at the first parking lot to your right check out the Labyrinth Garden that's outside the garden gates. The paths are easy to walk on and children will love exploring!
We wandered through this park for quite some time because there was SOOO much to see ! Peace and tranquility while learning and exploring a new setting. The only portion we did not take part in was the museum as the weather was perfect.
Near the University of Nevada, this park has everything from outdoor space to a museum. Every September it is home to the Reno Balloon Races. Locals use it for running, walking, dogs, kids...in other words, fun.
This park was my backyard and I spent a lot of time wandering and purposely walking through the grounds. Take your bike and access the canyons thru the tunnel under McCarran Blvd.Take your dog to the off-leash dog park that generally has a large pond/flood irrigation tank for dog's dipping (can be full of nasty germs make sure your pup is healthy). Take your discs out and play on the course; access it thru the tunnel under McCarran Blvd as well. Watch a bike race, human foot race, wedding, BBQ, try and book the Pagoda for a family reunion, run the fit course, go to the museum. Plenty of stuff to do in an afternoon.
