How many playgrounds in central park

Heading up Central Park West, this is the next one you find. Adventure Playground has similar climbing structures to some of the newer ones on the East Side of the park and is SO much fun. Our kids loved climbing in the tree house and the water is one of the best in the park. This is also the closest older kids playground to the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. This playground is right across from the Adventure Playground and aimed at younger kids.

It is newly renovated and beautiful. This is also the closest toddler playground to the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. This is a pretty shaded playground. Our kids had a lot fun on the different climbing equipment and it encourages imagination in part because of the beautiful wooded backdrop.

This playground has climbing, slides, bucket swings, sand, and a water feature. This playground was recently updated and is a great space for the 3 and under crowd. Small, lower equipment. A super fun little sand and water play area.

There is also a separate sprinkler area, bucket swings and cute details like chalkboards. This is one of the largest playgrounds in Central Park. Huge sand area and lots of space to run. Good standard play equipment with two climbers — one for older kids and one for younger. There are also bucket swings. On the Central Park Playground Map this one is labeled for school age as well but my kids found this playground too simple at age 5.

Located within the Arthur Ross Pinetum, a small arboretum within the park. This is however a great place for a picnic and space to run around. The fun hippo sculptures are a highlight of this playground. There are also tree houses, picnic tables, and a sprinklers. The climbers are limited and best for preschool and up. Toddlers would be entertained by the hippos. Generally I am underwhelmed by this playground. This is a fun, newer playground.

Lots of opportunities for climbing that is best for preschool and up. There is a spray fountain water feature that works for toddlers and up. Beautiful simple playground. I liked the way this playground was laid out with play spaces all around the outside of a covered trellis. It made for pleasant play for the kids and watching for the grown ups.

If you have a child that likes to climb this is an awesome playground. There are climbers and slides there is also a huge spider web like climbing structure. Was this information helpful? Optional Please tell us how we can make this page more helpful.
