Hansen Ridge Park

A small and beautiful playground connected with trails, a creek, and a wetland.

Hansen Ridge Park: play and nature exploring combined in the same place!

We’ve visited this park several times since we love it. Opened in 2013, it’s connected with the Rock Creek Trail and the Westside Trail, so when we are biking or walking in those trails, we love to stop by this park and other ones in the area.

The Hansen Ridge Park playground has options for big and small children, so both of my kids have fun there.

The park includes two picnic tables and a couple of benches, for taking a break and having a snack (we even had dinner there a couple of years ago and the kids loved that experience).

The wetland by the Park provides the opportunity to watch birds and other native wildlife. Recent trail improvements included beautiful wooden boardwalks through Bronson Creek wetlands.

We hope you visit it and have a great time there!

If you liked this park, there is another great one no so far from this area: Cedar Hills park.
