Wackman Park

Sports and Recreation

Wackman Park offers a good variety of sports facilities. You'll discover tennis courts with pickleball lines (perfect for when you can't decide which racket sport to play today), a half-court basketball area for pickup games, and a baseball field where future MVPs can practice their skills. There's also a multipurpose field that's ideal for everything from casual soccer matches to frisbee tossing.

If you're looking to squeeze in a workout, the park offers adult fitness equipment including a unique "Bamboo Jungle" climbing structure that makes exercising feel more like play. For those who prefer their cardio with a side of scenery, the park connects to bike trails that wind through the area.

Children's Play Areas

Kids haven't been forgotten at Wackman Park - far from it! The park features two thoughtfully designed playground areas catering to different age groups: one for the little ones ages 2-5 and another for the bigger kids ages 5-12. Swings are also available, because let's face it - what playground is complete without the simple joy of swinging?

Amenities and Gathering Spaces

Wackman Park is a nice spot for relaxation and social gatherings. The picnic areas with shade structures offer a welcome respite from the California sun, however you'll want to arrive early to claim one as they can't be reserved ahead of time.

Feeling hungry? Fire up one of the barbecue facilities for an outdoor feast. With open green spaces and access to nearby trails, Wackman Park offers both active recreation and peaceful leisure spots for Elk Grove residents.
