We drove up from the Grand Canyon and stopped in Kanab for the evening. We checked out Hamblim Park…read moreso our toddlers could run around. It's a very cute little park at the foothill of a mountain. The kids really enjoyed the play structure. swings, LARGE grassy play area, and the spongee floor. Yep, I said "spongee". The ground beneath the play structure is filled with recycled (I'm guessing) rubber bits so walking on them makes folks slightly bounce. The park is right around the corner from the downtown area and on the way out of town. It was just the trick to get my littles out and about.

My preteen kids said it was one of the best shows they have seen due to our close proximity to the lighting of the fireworks! Everything seemed bigger! Explosions louder! We were practically right under most of the explosions in the sky, with ambers literally falling on top of us / the spectators! Perhaps because if the dry air. At the very end of the show, our fears were realized as one last firework exploded on the ground, and some cardboard shrapnels flew into the spectators, hitting some of them. Fortunately, we think there were no injuries! We were just glad that we could attend and celebrate 4th of July far from home!

One of the most popular trails to hike is the Navajo loop via Queen's garden, which is a loop of 4ish miles that passes a bunch of beautiful lookout points as well as the "peekaboo" formation. It's very, very beautiful and not too difficult in my opinion - but do note that the very beginning/end (depending on whether you do the hike clockwise vs. counter) is rather steep and thus more challenging. I did it clockwise and therefore ended doing "Wall Street" from the bottom going up - it's several switchbacks with a decently steep grade (think Walter's wiggles in Zion, except a little bit harder since the hike to get here is longer than Angel's landing to WW). If you get winded easily, plan for at least a few hours to do the whole loop since you will tire out. Overall, I strongly recommend this hike, it's a good challenge that is very beautiful!

We stopped at the Visitor Center to learn about the protected prairie dogs that reside in the park. This was a special focus that day. They had tables where you can learn about the varieties of prairie dogs in the US as well as why the ones in the park are endangered. We then got to use their provided binoculars to view some of the prairie dogs that live near the visitor center. The highlight of our day was taking a horseback ride. Definitely look into this as an added activity during your visit!

This playground features a huge, well-maintained play structure with tons of space for running and exploring. Compared to other playgrounds, it is also well-shaded. There is also a smaller toddler play structure, although that one does get a lot more sun exposure. Beautiful grassy areas and tons of trees surround the playground. It is also next to a covered picnic table area. There is also a splash pad that we didn't get to see this time, but hopefully next time we will! I wish we could have come to this park more than once. But it was a little bit out of the way compared to the other places we visited. But it is definitely worth including on your list of St. George playgrounds!

The first reviewer described it well, and is the reason why we chose to stop here. We're enjoying the shaded picnic tables, playground, and big grassy field for kicking a soccer ball around. There's also a basketball court, volleyball net on the grass, a little "skate park" with ramps, a drinking water fountain. It was pure luck that we found it, though, because the map app sent us up a gravel road for 4 miles in the wrong direction!!! We turned around after a driving a few hundred yards and the road started to climb (and a group of guys on ATVs gave us curious looks as they drove by) and decided to drive into town in hopes of finding a shady bench, when we stumbled upon it! I'm attaching a photo of the CORRECT location in the map app (Apple, I'm so disappointed in you, your map app is STILL cr*p!)
