    Wonderful park! Really accessible trails and places to view the river plus beautiful scenery. It was my first time going to a park with my new walker and it was great!

    Beautiful park. It's huge with lots of tree. There's a area where kids can play, a great place to walk your dog or throw a birthday party. I wish there were more trash cans. However, on the weekends it is usually busy with birthday parties. So be mindful of that.

    My daughters favorite park. Located across the street from a off leash dog park. And close to tingley beach.

    Huge park! Dog friendly, family friendly. Might see some homeless here and there. Some people doing stuff they’re not supposed to do every once in a while but other than that. Plenty of room, tables, benches and shade. Nice playground for the children.

    Lots of trash in the parking lot and in the play area. It is a lovely green grassed park with big trees, but it needs to be cleaned up regularly.

    Mosquito infested. The trails across the street are also poorly maintained and disappear or dead end frequently. Bring a ton of bug spray if you come here. Stay in the park; don't try the trails.

    The Rio Grande Park was very nice, beautiful atmosphere and peaceful. People are friendly as you walk pass them and they are courteous. I would recommend this place for a beautiful family Day.

    I love this park but I think there are swarms of mosquitos that hang out here when it gets hotter outside, just fyi. They are small ones, but there's a lot. Bring bug spray. Super spacious, and plenty of walking space.

    This park was beautiful. We went for an egg hunt and it was clean. The playground is super big. The park steps along side the rio grand.

    While visiting Albuquerque and not having been to the park in years, I found that it had big improvement and the weather, the scenery especially the mountains in the background was beautiful. Besides the ducks and waterfall I even seen a Roadrunner. The day was beautiful. Thank you Albuquerque for the memories.

    Large open space, close to Bosque footpath. It's the starting location for Heart & Sole Sports Full Moon Run.

    After a bit of walking there was a sandy beach. We will not take our dog next time though as she came home with many sans burrs

    Never crowded and lots of open space to throw the dogs a Frisbee. The park is clean and has plenty of parking. The maintenance of the park is kept up, as the trashcans and litter is taken care of seemingly often. Overall, it is one of our better parks to go to, in my opinion.

    Very clean and nice trees - I was searching for a place to exercise the dogs on a roadtrip and this park was cool, literally..

  • 4/5 Amber S. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful playground with a big play structure, excellent location close to the Paseo Del Bosque, an off-leash dog park, and the zoo. Well-maintained, some trash (there are trash cans) free parking on site, big grassy expanse with shade trees. Could use a few more swings but otherwise just what our 5 yo needed.
