Great park! Although it is an amazing playground for children with different abilities, it's a really fun park for everyone! There's a little train you can ride, with a small tunnel and various "dinosaurs" to spot along the way. And lots of fun equipment from swings and slides to treehouses and a splash pad. Our grandchildren love going here!
It’s free and open every day! (Although the train doesn't operate on Sundays, just FYI.) The park is located inside of Tonaquint Park at 1851 S Dixie Dr. in St George.

This is a moderately difficult hike, but not long (less than 2miles), so most children 5 yr old and older would be able to manage it. Located outside of Leeds, in the Red Cliffs Desert Reserve, there is beautiful scenery and the unique Babylon Arch!
