About Jefferson Park

What You'll Find Here

Jefferson Park offers a sprawling multi-purpose field that's great for whatever outdoor activity strikes your fancy. No matter if you're looking to toss a frisbee, kick a soccer ball around, or just spread out a blanket and soak up some sunshine, there's plenty of green space to go around.

Sports enthusiasts will appreciate the basketball courts and baseball field where you can shoot some hoops or practice your swing. A scenic walking path loops around the park - ideal for getting your steps in or enjoying a leisurely stroll to clear your mind.

If you've got little ones in tow, the cozy playground provides a great spot for them to burn off energy and make new friends. The play area is thoughtfully designed with different age groups in mind, so children can enjoy themselves safely.

Comfort & Convenience

Planning a get-together? The picnic areas scattered throughout the park come complete with tables and barbecue facilities, making Jefferson Park a natural choice for family reunions, birthday celebrations, or just a casual weekend cookout with friends.

You'll come across restroom facilities on-site - always a practical necessity for longer visits. Evening sports enthusiasts will appreciate the lighting for the softball area, which lets the games continue even after the sun goes down.

The Vibe

Jefferson Park tends to be a bit light on shade, so you might want to pack a hat and sunscreen if you're visiting during warmer months. The upside? It's typically less crowded than other Visalia parks, making it a relatively peaceful spot away from the city's busier areas.

The park is dog-friendly, with pathways and open spaces where dogs can get some exercise (just remember to bring waste bags).

Finding Your Way

You'll come across Jefferson Park at the corner of S. Watson and Myrtle streets in Visalia. While its location in a busier part of town makes it easy to get to, you might hear some traffic noise during your visit.
