Oaks East Park

Park Overview

Situated in a residential pocket of West Jordan, Oaks East Park covers about 3.4 acres of green space that's become a backyard extension for nearby neighbors. This modest yet charming park offers a breath of fresh air amid suburban surroundings.

The park's open grassy expanses invite everything from impromptu soccer games to peaceful afternoon reading sessions. If you visit during winter, don't miss the park's hill - a local favorite that transforms into a sledding paradise when snow blankets the ground.

Amenities and Features

When you need to clear your head or get some steps in, the walking paths that wind around the park's perimeter provide the perfect route for a quick stroll or a leisurely walk with your thoughts.

What we love about this park is its natural balance - you'll discover sun-drenched open areas for soaking up vitamin D, alongside cool, shaded spots under mature trees when the Utah sun gets a bit too intense.

The large pavilion equipped with several picnic tables is the park's social hub. It's an ideal spot to host a family birthday celebration, a casual meet-up with friends, or simply enjoy an outdoor lunch away from your desk.

Playground Area

Kids gravitate toward the park's straightforward but enjoyable playground, complete with slides, monkey bars, and climbing structures. Nothing fancy here - just good, old-fashioned outdoor fun that gets children moving and imagining.

The playground thoughtfully caters to various developmental stages, with elements that will entertain both toddlers taking their first wobbly steps and more adventurous elementary schoolers looking to test their climbing skills.

Community Space

At its heart, Oaks East Park is a neighborhood gathering spot where community connections happen naturally. You might see morning joggers, afternoon dog-walkers, and evening picnickers all sharing this versatile outdoor space.

The design strikes a nice balance between active recreation areas and quieter spots for nature appreciation, making it a little oasis that adapts to whatever outdoor experience you're seeking.

Note that this park is primarily intended for neighborhood use, so there's no dedicated parking lot. You'll need to find street parking along the residential roads nearby when visiting.
