👍👍 A great playground with shade in the morning. It has a mister for hot days as well. There is a good mix of equipment for toddlers and bigger kids. It goes to show you that when you design playgrounds for universal use, everyone can enjoy!

👍👍 I got here early on July 4th. It was a beautiful walk! So much to take in and enjoy. There were deer along the way. Lots of friendly folks, though by 9am it was getting a little people-y and traffic picked up. A beautiful and amazing trail for anyone up for adventure!

Parkville Nature Sanctuary
Park
👍👍 We went to the Parkville Nature Sanctuary for the first time this last weekend. We went around 9:00am, with three adults, and two kiddos. This is a wonderful place to visit and a fabulous way to involve kiddos with nature. There are clearly marked trails, ample benches scattered throughout the trail...

Shawnee Mission Park Dog Off-Leash Area
Dog park
👍👍 One of the best dog parks in the USA! I've lived all over and this is the first park I've been to with off-leash hiking trails. I appreciate the separate entry and exit gates and the gravel dog beach is thoughtfully designed to minimize mud. Highly recommend for you and your beasts!

👍👍 Place is beautiful, long walks, many people, and nice views. It was cool going around the whole park seeing the different colors due to it being autumn. Plus, got this cool photo of a duck

Meadowbrook Park
Park
👍👍 One of my kids' favorite playgrounds. There are plenty of things for big and little kids to do. A good number of benches around for parents to sit at as well. The restrooms are a bit of a walk but are big enough and individually doored so able to take small kids in as a family, and don't have to try...

Line Creek Trailhead
Park
👍👍 One of my favorite places to walk year round. If you’ve not been out this winter to see it frozen, you’re missing out. This winter wonderland is “otherworldly”. The best place to see waterfalls is at the Community Center Entrance on Waukomis — just across from the Elementary School. If you park...

Olathe Lake Spray Pad

👍 Please add a restroom near the spray ground/creek area. It was my first time here with my two boys (3yr and 5yr old). This place offers three areas: sand area which has a foot wash for rinsing off the sand when you are done playing, spray ground and creek/water fall. Spray ground is activated by t...
