🫤 It's a small road-side park with some marble made turtles. But I don't think this park has anything enjoyable. It's good for only one thing - dog walk & poop. That's it. Not worth visiting, if you don't already stay nearby. People often mention turtles, kids, park, parking,

Turtle Park is a unique place where kids can climb all over the turtles and have so much fun. It's also a great place to park and walk to the zoo, though the parking is limited if going on a weekend.

Such a fun place! We all loved climbing on the turtles. Highly recommended for kids to burn off some energy! The parking lot isn't huge, but there is plenty of street parking. Park here and walk across the bridge to the zoo. 🙂

I love taking my daughter here. There are a variety of turtle sculptures to see and even some eggs. My daughter ran all over them. The artist who created them did an amazing job.

Great parking experience for my twin boys who are four and a half. We spent an hour at the playground and then 30 minutes at the park with the turtles and the snakes. It was fun for them to climb on the snakes in the turtles and take pictures as well as climb up and down all the hills.

Great place for the kids across from a decent jungle gym type play area and right across from the St Louis zoo

Great experience to see these animals so naturally close not to mention of the merry-go-round,the train ride. Thanks for asking.

Great, quiet little park to have lunch at just the 2 of you or the family. Not very busy, plenty of space and the HUGE turtles are pretty cool!

Even though it was beyond Hot 🔥 🥵 The kids loved 😍 the short time we were there. Didn't get to explore it all but...oh next time we'll be taken a picnic & juices & spending more time. Got some really fun pics

This is a great quick stop. Turtles of various sizes, snakes, and baby turtles hatching. Nice way to let the kids burn off some energy.

It was super fun for me when I was like 6 years old, and it still is, but the thing I like about it now is its design, it is quite the landmark and is eye candy, to me any way.

Not a lot of parking but a neat old school concrete style my son knows what butt burn is now.

Lots of updated equipment,ample parking. Perfect spot for a picnic. The restrooms do not have changing tables or doors on the stalls.
