South Tower Park

South Tower Park

Located in The Vistas Village of Summerlin West, South Tower Park is a welcoming entrance to the southern part of the Summerlin Vistas neighborhood in Las Vegas. This 7-acre green space is a clean, safe area where families can unwind and connect.

Kid-Friendly Play Zones

Parents will appreciate that The park features two shaded playground areas - a rare and thoughtful touch in the scorching Nevada heat. Little ones can toddle around in the area designed specifically for younger children, while more adventurous kids can tackle the challenges in the larger playground section.

A notable feature of this park is the Swings! They might seem like a playground staple, but they're actually quite uncommon in Clark County parks. Both play areas are strategically positioned so you can keep an eye on your little adventurers without having to sprint between locations.

The splash pad situated between the playgrounds is particularly popular in summer. When temperatures climb, this water feature becomes the neighborhood hotspot where kids can cool off and splash around safely. It's very welcome during those triple-digit summer days.

Chill Spots and Green Spaces

Not in the mood for active play? The park's open grassy areas provide perfect spots for spreading out a blanket, tossing a frisbee, or simply lounging with a good book. The abundance of large shade trees around the grounds creates natural cooling zones - a precious commodity in the desert landscape.

Hungry? The park comes equipped with picnic tables and BBQ facilities positioned so you can flip burgers while still keeping your kids in sight. These areas make South Tower Park an ideal spot for impromptu family picnics or planned gatherings with friends.

Practical Perks

You'll find clean restrooms available around the park (though you might want to bring your own hand soap, as it's not always stocked). Comfortable shaded seating areas and benches are scattered around, well-suited for taking a breather or watching the world go by.

Dog parents will appreciate that four-legged family members are welcome, but they must remain leashed. Waste bag stations are conveniently placed across the grounds, making it easy to keep the park pristine for everyone.

Parking is typically plentiful on weekdays, but you might find more company during weekends. The park's location across from the South Tower makes it easily accessible for nearby residents.

South Tower Park offers a mix of active and passive recreation spaces - big enough to offer variety, yet small enough to maintain a neighborhood feel. It's suitable for an afternoon of play, a peaceful spot to unwind, or a place to host a small gathering, typically without the crowds of larger parks.
