East Boulder Community Park

Play & Recreation Spaces

East Boulder Community Park offers plenty of options for those looking to spend time outdoors. Right next to the East Boulder Community Center (with its gym, swimming pool, hot tub, and rock climbing wall), this park offers plenty of ways to stay active and have fun.

The park features large turf fields suitable for various sports and activities. Soccer fans and lacrosse players will appreciate the two dedicated turf soccer fields that are well-maintained and ready for action.

Feel like trying something different? Take your pick from the sand volleyball courts, tennis courts, basketball courts, or handball courts. The courts accommodate both competitive players and those just looking for casual recreation.

For Families & Four-Legged Friends

The dog park includes three separate gated areas for dogs of different sizes. There's also a dog swimming area where dogs can cool off during the warmer months.

Kids haven't been forgotten either. The playground with sand coating provides a safe place for little ones to climb and explore. It's particularly great for toddlers, but you should know there isn't much shade available, so sunscreen is a must on sunny days.

The paved sidewalks across the park make this a great spot for kids still wobbling on their training wheels - a safe place to practice without worrying about traffic.

Natural Beauty & Trails

Take a moment to appreciate the park's pond, which not only adds to the tranquil atmosphere but also frames beautiful views of the Flatirons mountains in the background.

The eastern edge of the park borders Boulder Creek, adding to its natural charm. Well-maintained walking and running trails connect to a broader network of paths, so you can easily extend your stroll or morning jog beyond the park itself.

Dog walkers particularly enjoy these trails, with main pathways requiring leashes - creating a respectful environment that works for everyone visiting the park.

Convenient Amenities

When hunger strikes, you'll find picnic tables positioned to take advantage of the mountain views, along with open grassy areas meant for spreading out a blanket for an impromptu picnic.

You can find clean restrooms tucked behind the tennis courts, and there's plenty of parking available so you won't need to circle around looking for a spot.

What makes this park special is how it balances active recreation spaces with quieter areas where you can simply soak in Boulder's natural beauty - making it ideal for both energetic community gatherings and peaceful solo visits.
