Oquirrh Highlands Park

Play & Recreation

When you need a breath of fresh air, this park offers sprawling grassy areas excellent for tossing a frisbee or spreading out a picnic blanket. The playground offers a fun zone for the kiddos, though it's worth noting it seems to be a better fit for children 6 and up rather than the tiny tot crowd. Still, it's a safe space where the little ones can burn off energy and practice their climbing skills.

Sports more your thing? You'll come across baseball fields where you can practice your swing and volleyball courts for when you're feeling competitive. There's even a set of horseshoe pits if you're looking to try your hand at this classic game that combines skill with a dash of luck.

Neighborhood Escape

Found in a residential area, this green space is the backyard many apartment-dwellers wish they had. Regardless of whether you're meeting neighbors for a game, reading under a tree, or just need some time with nature, the thoughtful layout accommodates all kinds of outdoor enthusiasts without feeling crowded.

Comfort & Scenery

The pavilion stands ready for your family gatherings or birthday celebrations, with a generous picnic area that can host your whole crew. One of the park's best features has to be those mountain views that remind you you're in Utah's beautiful landscape, even when you're just minutes from home.

The grounds are kept in good shape, and the walking loop provides just enough distance for a satisfying evening stroll without requiring serious hiking boots. Dog owners, you're in luck - this is a pet-friendly spot where your four-legged friends can get their exercise too, especially during those perfect Utah evenings when the temperature is just right.

Water & Landscape

Sitting near Lake Oquirrh, the park benefits from that special serenity that comes with being close to water. The combination of the lake view and open green spaces creates a peaceful backdrop - a quiet neighborhood park where you can relax.
