Family members of all ages can enjoy the exceptional parks that Phoenix has to offer.
There are 189 city parks that are open 365 days a year with walking paths, playgrounds, athletic fields, lots of open green space, lots of other offerings, and a chance to relax and re-energize.
Eleven city parks have splash pads that reopened for the summer on May 24.
