Nice easy hike. Well designed open space that is also educational.

Solis Park has many open spaces, but nothing particularly special. It’s still a solid neighborhood park that’s easy for toddlers to enjoy. The community pool is right next to the park, though you need a key fob to get in. Simple, calm, and convenient for nearby residents.

A gem of a park to visit and stroll around and great for picnics. Watch the many birds and tiny turtles in the lakes. Plenty of restrooms and areas for bigger gatherings and activity areas for children and adult fitness. There is a small entry fee for vehicles which is included in your regional park annual pass if you have one.

One of my favorite parks for day and night walks. The grounds are pristine and well-maintained. Going here is always a blissful retreat and it’s always nice to spot the resident geese along the way.
