Elizabeth Jane Fiddyment Park

A Touch of History

Elizabeth Jane Fiddyment Park bears the name of a remarkable pioneer woman who journeyed to California in the early 1850s - a widow traveling with just her baby boy, Walter. This name choice connects today's community space with a piece of local history.

The park is actually quite new on Roseville's recreational scene, having been dedicated on October 21, 2017.

Where to Find It

You'll spot this neighborhood location just off Fiddyment Road and Crawford Parkway. It's a local park that fits into Roseville's approach of creating spaces for both organized activities and casual use.

What You'll Find

Though not huge, the park includes several notable features. Kids gravitate toward the playground area with its variety of equipment suitable for different ages and abilities.

The park has a zipline that's popular with children - though heads up, it occasionally goes offline for maintenance, so it might not be operational during your visit.

Places to Relax

The open grassy areas work well for throwing around a frisbee, having an impromptu soccer match, or just spreading out a blanket for some cloud-watching.

If you're planning to spend a few hours, you'll appreciate the picnic areas with their shade structures and shelters - a real blessing during those hot California afternoons.

Part of Something Bigger

This park isn't just a standalone space but a piece of Roseville's thoughtful park system. The city aims to maintain 9 acres of park land per 1,000 residents, evenly distributed between neighborhood parks like this one, larger citywide parks, and natural open spaces.

This careful planning creates a nice balance of recreational options throughout the community, making Elizabeth Jane Fiddyment Park one small but important part of Roseville's outdoor offerings.
