Recent review snippets help visitors gauge vibe, upkeep, and who each park suits best.
A Small and Fun Adventure Perfect place for a stop before going home. The restrooms are VERY clean and the Museum is perfect, family friendly. The Mamut exhibition was my favorite, my husband and 2 year old had a great time pretending to scape from the Justice. It was fun, a great place to relax and learn.
Read more about Southeast Wyoming Welcome CenterLittle gem of a state park! This place is great for mountain biking or hiking! The trails have a good variety of skill levels, and there is something for everyone. A couple small skills sections too, to train drops or jumps. Almost never crowded unless you go on a weekend in the summer. The hike to hidden falls is lovely and hidden falls is such a cute tucked away spot!
Read more about Curt Gowdy State ParkA really beautiful place. It's also free! Which was even better! I went during the middle of the week, so me a a few others who stopped by practically had the place to myself. I spent several hours here and I know I still didn't take enough time to enjoy all the variety of plants and trees. I didn't expect the place to be so expansive either. Since I didn't have a map, I just kept walking and next thing, I'm in another section of the place. In fact, i hadn't even realized that this and the the Botanical Gardens (also free) were connected.
Read more about Lions ParkNice park with a disc golf course, playground, a few shelters with picnic tables and restroom (porta-potty in winter), horseshoe pits and pond with ducks and geese. Smally park (across the street) has a few baseball hoops.
