We visited Pioneer Park for the first time recently, and while it's definitely a beautiful and…read moreunique spot, our experience was a bit mixed . We didn't really know where to start when we arrived, and there wasn't much direction, so we ended up just climbing the first rock formation we saw. Honestly, if it weren't for a group of people ahead of us, we probably wouldn't have had any idea where to go. I was hoping to make it to the arch, but the climb felt a little too steep and slippery, especially with kids. We were carrying our three-year-old and keeping a close eye on our six-year-old, who was feeling a bit more adventurous than we were comfortable with in that terrain. We didn't make it very far in and mostly just stopped to take a quick photo so we could say we visited. It was also pretty hot, with the sun beating down the whole time, which made it harder to explore and enjoy the park fully. That said, the park itself is really nice, and you can tell there's a lot to see if you're prepared and know where you're going. I'd recommend going earlier in the day, bringing plenty of water, and maybe looking up a map or trail guide ahead of time, especially if you're visiting with young kids. Overall, it's a cool place, but we didn't get to experience it as much as we had hoped. Definitely worth another try with better planning!

A million years ago when I was in high school, I broke up with my boyfriend at this park. It was a…read moresad day, but I've had many great memories there since then (and even made amends with the boyfriend and we are on good terms now). Anyway, this park has been around forever and whether your memories are of the lush, green grassy areas or the adjacent recreational equipment, you probably have a story of your own. Hopefully there are more happy memories than sad ones like mine. Because it's centrally located and a large size, there are lots of markets or community events that are held here. There is a parking lot nearby as well as ample street parking. It's a great space to bring the St. George and surrounding community together.

At this park weekly St. George farmers market is in full swing. There are food trucks too. You can…read moreorder your food in the market grounds too. Then there is a pavilion you can go eat under at a picnic table or take a huge blanket to enjoy your food on the grass close to the park while the children play. There is a farmer market every Saturday. The hours for summer are 8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. (noon) MDT until October. Winter hours are from November to April 10 am - 2 pm. Closed the last 2 weeks of December and all of January for winter break. This park is huge, plenty of space for big or small families to congregate too. Area to play pickle ball, run, shade to relax, walk with your fur baby on a leash, walk along the pathway with your signing other (you get the idea), safe enough to walk by yourself too and plenty of space to set up family outdoor games. Bathrooms, drinking fountains, and plenty of parking. Parking, little side rant. If you are parking on a Saturday when the area is busy, then it sucks finding a spot. The vehicles start parking at entrances/exits, then it turns into a one-way battle of who is turning around. In my opinion, parking should not be allowed in those narrow entrances/exits. Otherwise, it is FUN, FUN, FUN... and next door to rodeo grounds, too.

The town square has a myriad of things including some picnic tables, art work, sculptures, and music playing through some speakers in the nearby tower. While sitting there enjoying a picnic lunch a roadrunner decided to show up and it was funny to see some little kids chasing it. The bird was probably stressed but the little kids thinking they had a chance to get close it it was making me laugh. All we needed was a coyote (meep meep). There is a carousel, a splash pad, and lots of art sculptures. The area is lit up right now in Dec, with Christmas lights, and they are done pretty well. There are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby within 1/4 - 1/2 mile, easy to walk around. Check out my photos.

The park is super cute and quiet but the dog section feels a little forgotten. It's quiet. I feel like if the city was to put a little more effort into its upkeep and take better care of the grass in the parks, maybe more people would come and use it. It's very nicely oriented with big trees for shade and nice benches. We need more good doggie parks in town. We just need to have a little more love and effort shown to the two we do have so people feel like they can come and it's a nice space to use.

It's runs behind houses and through the backside of a large wash and past Sienna Hills Park. It's nice because you can see all sorts of wildlife. Being paved or concrete in some areas you can always make the trek without worry of the elements. We see Cottontail Rabbits, Desert Fox, Quail, Lizards and many bird species. It's really wide (10-15') so people can pass each other walking or riding bikes. This trail also merged into other trails throughout this area. You can even go under the freeway and merge into the Red Cliffs Reserve Trail system. It's great for small families so they don't have to be exposed to traffic. Dogs are allowed, but please pickup after them and keep them on a leash.

I'm so glad I came across this park! There are a couple of other parks in town that I usually stop…read moreat with my dog, but as I was driving by, I noticed this park and my dog needed a potty break, so I pulled into the parking lot and got out. The park looked beautiful from the start and hearing the water from the nearby creek that goes through some of the 7 acre park was very relaxing and peaceful. There are no swings in this park more than likely because they have been taken out of most parks due to safety concerns. The closest thing you will find to a swing at this park are the swinging benches and I recommend relaxing in one near the creek like I did because it was so nice! This park is located next to the Santa Clara River and the water flowing through the creek is water from the river. There was a flood in 2005 and there are plaques I saw that mentioned some of the homes right near the river across from this park that were flooded and the plaques tell some of the story that you might want to stop and read and then take a look around at the area to better understand with a visual experience some of what happened. The playground is very interesting. Hubby and I had a fun time trying to figure out what the heck most of it was. I can't imagine they would take the swings and other playground equipment out to start putting this type of stuff in, but it's happening and I am seeing it at more and more parks. The play structures I saw and played on were extremely fun and also extremely dangerous. You will have the type of kids who don't let kids play in a place like this and will give a 1 or 2 star rating because the playground equipment is dangerous, but not me. I rather let my kids have fun memories of playing at the park and if they break an arm or leg well that's just what happens and I will not sue the park or city because it's just apart of being a kid. The Santa Clara River Regional Trail goes through the park and the path for it is hard to miss and well maintained. There are 2 shaded picnic areas that are good sized with picnic tables and BBQ grills. There are bathrooms and they were clean, a volleyball court and horseshoe pits. This park offers something for the whole family.
