Sedgwick County Park is a wonderful destination for families looking to enjoy the great outdoors. The park features expansive green spaces and well-maintained walking paths, making it easy for visitors to explore and unwind in a natural setting. Families can enjoy a variety of activities, from leisurely strolls to spirited games of frisbee or soccer in the open fields. One of the highlights of Sedgwick County Park is its well-equipped playgrounds, where children can run, climb, and play safely. The park's overall cleanliness is commendable, with staff consistently working to keep the grounds tidy and inviting for all visitors. However, the restroom facilities could use some improvement. While they are available, they often lack of water run facilities and cleanliness, which can be a concern for families, especially those with young children. This drawback can detract from an otherwise enjoyable experience. Overall, Sedgwick County Park is a lovely place for family outings and outdoor fun. With its beautiful landscape and various recreational opportunities, it’s a great spot to spend a day, but visitors should be prepared for the restroom situation during their visit.

I have played tennis here. It was great until they converted two of the courts to six pickle ball courts. It’s very noisy and not many play there any more. They should have built them at a different location. There are several lakes that you can hike around. However there are no activities in the water other than miniature power boats. The zoo is next door. Sometimes you can hear the lions roar in the morning and evening. There is also basketball and horseshoes but I rarely see those being used. There is a large hill (for Wichita) it’s probably 30 feet high. It’s great for sleeping in the winter or hiking up the slope of the steep sides of your practicing for a hike. Going up the steep sides I did 600 elevation gain in two miles. It’s also a good place to go to get a bit of the entire park. Also from the top you can watch the radio controlled cars jump the small hills just north. It’s great to hike in the morning and hear all the birds. Lots of cardinals, blue Jays, geese, ducks, red winged black birds, some orioles, egrets, great blue herons and more. The park can get busy with events but there is always an open area. The paths have, walkers, cyclists, runners, some dogs. This might be my favorite park in Wichita.

Great park. I was able to get a 7 mile run in with so many path choices. Everyone was friendly.
