Sar-Ko-Par Trails Park - A beautiful pond - Parks Near Me - Lenexa, Kansas

Sensational outdoor recreation in the 'burbs. Whether it's the Sar-Ko-Par aquatic center's outdoor pool (awesome slides!), the lovely pond, or the roller hockey rink, there is something for everyone and anyone in these 50+ acres of Lenexa. The newest hook is the skate park, which doubles as a spot for some BMX action. Plenty of ramps and quarter-pipes, differing degrees of difficulty, and safe spaces make it attractive for many age ranges. The 'Rolling Magic' statue/sign announces just that: a fabulous spot to get your daredevil on (wear a helmet!). In Decembers, Sar-Ko lights up with beautifully adorned trees in alternating colors encircling the pond. It's a short circuit around the pond and the reflection from the mostly still pond makes for sensational photo ops. Check out the gazebo for special views and picture taking. Parking isn't overwhelming, but you can make it happen. There are tennis courts and a frisbee golf short course, as well as accessible walking trails and nature points. Outstanding park with just about everything to offer and very little to miss! read more

This park is so cute. Great for a run, walk, fun with kids and always check it out during the holidays for their lights. And the lenexa bbq battle is a whole vibe! read more

This is a very well designed suburban park that is compact yet very diverse in all that it offers. An aquatic center, skate park, picnic area with shelters, kiddy playgrounds, public art, tennis and basketball courts, large ponds for fishing with bridges and stepping stone paths to an island, a historical museum complex, lots of trails for walking and plenty of trees and parking. There is an urban planner and a parks and rec. manager somewhere that deserve a blue ribbon! I came for the historical aspect but enjoyed my time seeing all that they had to offer. A definite return stop for a bit of nature or a place to enjoy a carry-out lunch or coffee when in the Lenexa area. read more

I truly think this is the best display of Christmas lights anywhere in the Kansas City Metro area. And this year there are even more lights than last year. Be sure to view it both from the entry on 87th St. and the entry further north going up the long driveway to get the view from the top. And step inside the beautiful little gazebo on the lower level... every inch of it is covered with lights this year! And if you have any magic paper Christmas lights (and fireworks) viewing glasses, you will love what you see even more! The snowmen glasses are the best! read more

Great park, the walking path around the lake is well maintained. There is a large playground and shelter area. During the holidays this a great place to come check out the lights. There is an aquatic center, Tennis/Pickleball courts and a large skate park. I have not played the disc golf course here but plan to in the near future. If you come by at the right time they use goats to eat the weeds along the creek area. read more

Enjoyed the walk through the park with all the trees aglow. We went after Christmas and New Year. It was not crowded. It was a perfect night. Noticed that there is a nice play place for the children. We will come back and enjoy this park in the summer again. read more

Great skate park that has recently been renovated by the city of Lenexa. If you board, scooter, skate or bmx bike this is the spot. Restrooms & drinking fountains are right next to the park and they've added additional parking nearby. Rolling Magic pays tribute to a skate park in JOCO in the 80's that was open for a few years. Great addition to the city! read more

Best park in the area. It's very clean and has water, walking trails, restrooms, and tons of places to explore. It feels so nice and relaxing to walk around there. I often see people fishing and it's a great place to take photos. Highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

I love Sar-Ko-Par Trails Park! This has been of my go-to parks for as along as I can remember and love that they continue to update it. The park itself is pretty simple but has quite a bit of history (which you can actually read about on a sign near one of the highest parts of the park. It is really cool to know how long this area has been active and what it started out as. The park is great for everyone in the family and that isn't even considering all of the events that are hosted in this park throughout the year (chili cook-off, Christmas lights, etc.). But there are numerous paths to walk/run on, updated playgrounds, shelters, the Legler Barn Historical Museum, a railroad caboose, picnic areas, soccer fields, volleyball court, a three-acre lake that you can use a stone path to cross half of, a gazebo, community garden, newly renovated skate park, tennis courts, basketball court, and more! There was a public pool but it is currently under construction. It is in such a great location and during the winter, you can walk next door to the Foundry Church's coffee shop. Overall, I have always enjoyed Sar-Ko-Par and feel like it continues to get improvements almost every year. I am glad money gets put into it and the family's legacy gets to continue each and every year. read more

Sar-Ko-Par Trails Park - Parks Near Me - Lenexa, Kansas

I love music here, walking with friends here, doing the downward dog here (& I don't even love yoga), throwing a football here, enjoying community gardening here. It's a place of joy. GO see the Christmas lights; a lovely vibe park! read more

This place is Enormous. I've spent quite a few days hanging out here. Not only do they have like 4 playgrounds over 40 acres, but they have a skateboard park, tennis courts (I think), 2 of their playgrounds are awesome, lots of fields and courts, a full-sized lake with fish, walking paths, and a stone bridge across the lake. The coolest most memorable thing about Sar Ko is the lights though. During the holidays, they put up lights on every tree nearly, and what you can find here - if you find a parking spot - is a great place to walk amongst the christmas spirit. It's a great way to spend an evening after dinner, and a neat place to kickstart your holiday cheer. I'll definitely be there before years end. The fishing is good too, but I've found they have a real problem with algae blooms. Bummer, but whatever. It's fine just to be able to cast a few. Huge place. HUGE. read more

An absolutely wonderful park to walk. Great trails and a beautiful pond. But Christmas is extra spectacular here. Don't miss all the lights- one of the biggest displays you'll see anywhere! Plenty of parking to get out and enjoy up close, but many people also just drive through to enjoy them from afar. read more

Sar Ko Par lights are absolutely stunning! If you are ok with being a bit chilly you will love taking a walk through the park and getting beautiful pictures with the lights as back drops. We went on a night that it wasn't freezing but still pretty cold so make sure you dress warm and bundle up. There is so much to see you have to walk the whole park. I'm so glad it was back this year as it wasn't up last year because of the lovely Covid. I know Christmas is over but you can still go and see them as they are still up! You won't be disappointed! read more

My new favorite park! What a beauty in the middle of all the hub-bub. I love the walkway, the playgrounds, the trees, the gazebo. The thing I love the most though, is the history. What a nice legacy to leave behind for the many generations ahead. We have found an easy place to run and have fun. Or maybe pretend to be a leopard and lounge in the climbing trees. We've spent hours here already and plan to spend many more. read more

I don't get to this park as often as I should. It's got an adorable little pond with a bridge going over part of it. It has many walking trails which keep it any one area from getting overcrowded.

This was a small but pretty and well kept park. It was my first time visiting. I enjoyed walking my dog around the pond with my daughter and it had park benches at stopping points. Also, they are building a new kid's playground. read more

When we were looking for a house in Johnson County one of our requirements was that it needed to be close to "Psycho Park"......we can't pronounce the actual name of this park correctly so we just go with psycho park. It has the best playgrounds, a beautiful lake, an awesome walking trail, well equipped shelters, and a phenomenal swimming pool complete with two slides. The skate park looks great too, but that's not my cup of tea. From The Spinach Festival to the Christmas lights, and Halloween festivities, Psycho park is one thing that makes Lenexa truly unique and special. It's also a GREAT place to take family photos or senior portraits. read more

This place was very pretty and there is so much to see. I was a little overwhelmed seeing the amount of people who were out and about and kids playing on the playground. It was a little crazy trying to take some scenery pics because there were all sorts of people there taking family pics, birthday pics and senior pics. read more

I've been here a few times. It's wide open and perfect for walking and great for families.

I love this park. I used to walk many rounds around the pond and enjoyed seeing ducks, and geese there. The holiday lights are so beautiful and this park always has many events. read more

This park is really growing on me. I hadn't been that often when I first reviewed, and didn't realize the many offerings it had, and how more expansive the place was. I had always entered through what I considered the main entrance off of 87th. I blundered on that in my first review, saying it was off SM Pkwy (thanks to a fellow Yelper in pointing that out). There are more than one entrance, and more to see. I enjoy the walks around this park, but it offers more than just a good walk. In addition to the play areas for the kids and the fishing pond, there's a skate park area, a real nice swimming pool area, and I'm sure more that I have yet to discover. I attended one of the festivals in the park after my first review, and had a really good time. It was organized well with many offerings for the whole family. Unfortunately I missed the barbecue competition. I heard that was a good event. The Christmas light display they put on every year throughout the park is a must to see. I look forward to attending more festivals and events at this park, and of course, the walks. read more

I'm not sure what the name means, but Sar-Ko-Par is a nice medium sized park in joco that is easy to get to and has lots of amenities. The pool is pretty standard with a sizeable shaded concession area and a nice shallow section for the little kiddos. There is also a basketball court, tennis courts and a skate park for the tween/teen set. The playground that is near the pool and parking area is fairly large but doesn't have any baby swings, which is why I gave this park a 3 instead of a 4. There are a bunch of paved walking trails around the small pond and plenty of picnic shelters and tables. The Legler Barn Museum is also housed at the park, giving it alot of possibilities for activities. Now if I could only figure out the name.... read more
