If you head east on 1st street in Alamogordo, you'll end up at Desert Foothills Park. This is a…read moreCity park with the feel of being well out in the desert. A popular spot with asphalt trails, roadrunners, rabbits and (you guessed it) rattlesnakes. Don't worry, just leave them alone and they'll leave you alone. Anyway, the Scenic Drive Extension Spillway (AKA 'the ditch') finds its origins here, much beloved by skate rats. Several trailheads start to the East of the park, one of which goes up to the mythical 'Goat Springs' of which I have never been able to find. The shaded picnic area offers a large barbeque pit, contact the Alamogordo City Parks Dept to reserve usage. So, if you feel like taking in a little desert without going too far this is the ticket!

I played basketball, hung out at the skate park, and had so much fun in the summer camps. They combine middle school & high school but they have so many things to do so it's an amazing program.

On both sides of a drainage canal/river (and I'm not sure if it includes the other side of…read moreWashington Avenue), Washington Park is a medium-sized park. On the one side, a playground and parking area with a concrete structure that has restrooms. On the other side, an amphitheater, skate park and open grass areas that appear to have been used for soccer and baseball. The park also has a fenced-in tennis court with bleachers and some benches with awnings for shade. We're in New Mexico now and the sun is brutal.

Nice plaza in the heart of EP…read more We stumbled upon this little park after a dinner downtown. There was live music going on and lights that drew us here in the after dinner evening. It's a nice size plaza with Jimenez' Plaza de Los Lagartos as a centerpiece. Surprisingly, the statue replaced live alligators the city held here in the pond in the 1950s. They have long pong and chess tables available on the east side of the plaza. Plenty of benches available for people watching. This location played host to the free screening of a true classic "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." The screening was part of the Plaza Classic Film Festival. Great renovated space is open to the public and communicated the history and culture of the city of El Paso very well.

I was checking if Retired Military Veterans were allowed to use the facilities/Gym. WBAMC & AWC…read morefort bliss, had informed me that as an Veteran All is free just go in and sign up. On 4 May, 2026 I went in to sign up. A young man at the front desk informed me that Everyone pays and their is No Military Discounts. Yes, the park is called Veterans Park, but Veterans pay as well. I again searched and found that his statement is NOT Correct. That Retired Veterans can use for Free, just sign up. Can someone please let me know? Thank You. It would not be fair to provide a rating since I have yet to use the facilities. However, in order to submit my experience. I shall.

I would say Album Park is one of the older parks in east El Paso. It's a pretty OK park that's…read moreclose to the Eastwood High School area. I grew up coming to this park with my family. Every once in awhile I took my son to run around and buy an ice cream from one of the many ice cream trucks that park in the area. I've even had picnics with friends and family here. This is a pretty nice park to host a family reunion or party. It isn't as nice as Memorial Park or others but it's alright. There's lots of grass, baseball fields and a nearby recreation center (named after Gary Del Palacio, an El Paso businessman and community activist who was murdered in 2005). There's also walking trails and tennis courts here. Whenever we're in monsoon season (during the summer months usually), this park floods a lot. I've seen and heard a lot of tadpoles here. A huge pond forms all over the park. As gross as it may sound, I think people actually get into the pond/water. I would advise against it. There might be dog poop, who knows what else can be in the water? Overall, a pretty good park. Check it out at least once or twice. Pack a picnic lunch, chairs, blanket and visit. Don't bring beer or wine! Sorry!

You have ice cream trucks by the handful on weekends. It's funny that this park is under Album. It's actually called Eastwood Park.
