Oppio Park

Recreation Facilities

Found in Sparks, Nevada, Oppio Park spans a welcoming 5 acres of community green space. This local space offers a little something for everyone looking to enjoy some outdoor time.

The park blends active and peaceful areas nicely. There are multi-purpose fields where you can kick a ball around or play frisbee, while the picnic area with its scattered picnic tables makes for a great spot to enjoy lunch with family or friends under the open sky.

Playground and Shade

If you've got kids in tow, they'll likely make a beeline for the play structure where they can climb, slide, and burn off some energy. One of the park's best features is its mature trees that cast cool shadows across the grounds - a true blessing during those hot Nevada afternoons.

There's also a charming gazebo that provides another shady retreat, ideal for catching your breath or hosting a small gathering away from the sun's intensity.

Sports Facilities

Athletic types will appreciate the range of sporting options here. The park has a basketball court, tennis court, and volleyball court for those pickup games or practice sessions. On weekends, you can even access the soccer field at the neighboring school if you're craving more space.

The generous grassy areas within the park work perfectly for impromptu games, spreading out a picnic blanket, or letting your four-legged friend stretch their legs.

Accessibility and Amenities

Getting to and around Oppio Park is straightforward. You can find shaded parking on-site - a thoughtful touch - and when it gets busy, there's overflow parking available in the Sparks Middle School parking lot outside of school hours.

The park's pathways provide nice routes for a casual stroll or morning jog surrounded by greenery. One thing to note: instead of permanent facilities, the park offers a portable toilet for restroom needs, so plan accordingly.
