Jaggy Road Park

Location and Access

Located in Vancouver, Washington, Jaggy Road Park is a cozy 3.4-acre green space that provides a nice escape from the daily grind. You'll find this park near the Vancouver Mall, making it convenient to visit after shopping or when you're looking for some outdoor time.

Located in the 4500 block of NE 72nd Avenue, the park is just a stone's throw from State Route 500, so getting here is a breeze if you're driving through the area. Just a heads up - there's no dedicated parking lot, only street parking available. This setup tends to keep the park mostly used by people who live in the area.

Park Features

The park has generous open lawn areas that work well for spreading out a blanket, tossing a frisbee, or letting kids play freely. Several picnic tables dot the landscape, offering pleasant spots to enjoy a homemade lunch or simply sit and watch the clouds roll by.

If you want to shoot some hoops, the park's basketball hoop is available for casual play or practice. If you're more in the mood for a gentle stroll, a small oval walking path winds through the park - nothing too strenuous, just right for clearing your head or getting in some light exercise.

While Jaggy Road isn't huge, its open grassy spaces provide plenty of room to spread out and enjoy whatever outdoor activity strikes your fancy.

Playground and Family Activities

Kids will make a beeline for the playground equipment that offers a welcome outlet for their boundless energy. The play area is thoughtfully designed to keep the little ones entertained while you can keep an eye on them from the nearby picnic areas.

The park has a neighborhood feel to it - you'll often see local kids meeting up after school and families spending time here on weekends.

Amenities and Services

Four-legged friends are welcome at Jaggy Road Park, with plenty of space for them to explore (while leashed, of course). The park thoughtfully provides dog waste bags to help everyone do their part in keeping the grounds clean and pleasant.

Note that the park doesn't have restrooms or water fountains, so you might want to take care of those needs before arriving and bring along some water, especially on warmer days.
