Cute little park in the midst of south Davis homes. It's a bit of a distance from the street,…read moredepending on which side you're coming from, so that makes me feel safer about the kids running around. Street parking only. There's very easy walking access from the surrounding neighborhoods, and I saw a few people taking a stroll and some biking. There are two separate play areas, but they're not super far apart, which makes it easier to supervise the kids. One is more geared for older kids and one for toddlers, although my toddler loved both of them. There are two big kid swings and two little kid swings (again, separate areas). There are wood chips in the play area, no sand. We saw some gardeners doing landscaping as we were there; the park definitely felt like they kept it up well. As for eating, there are two picnic tables and a drinking fountain. There are NO bathrooms. While there were lots of trees, they were not necessarily covering the play structures, just the surrounding grass. I wouldn't come on a hot, sunny afternoon!

There are so many little parks located near this area, and Walnut Park is wonderful! Located next…read moreto Peregrine (a school) it has a vast open grassy field, tennis courts, pickleball courts, and a playground. The courts are lighted so you can play at night. The courts are rather new so there are barely any cracks through them! For those that prefer to watch, there are bleachers that line the courts so you can hang out there! I saw tons of people bring their dogs with them so definitely bring your four legged friend with you to enjoy the park. There is a parking lot right by the courts that you can park at to walk around. It's also extremely close to Oakshade Town Center so you can go over there to grab a bite to eat. I haven't gone there when school is in session but on the off days, it is pretty empty and accessible :)

But if you wanna play where you can walk around and explore wildlife this is a great place to do it. Early in the morning, when it's nice and cool, it's not unusual to see people out with binoculars. There are so many birds out here! I'm thankful that the city of Woodland finally has this open with regular hours.

So on the look out for a walking trail and came across this little gem on my search for some walking trails. Two entrances and two parking spots that I passed. There is a potty box located on the other parking lot (you'll pass it if you keep waling through). Lots of walkers, no bike riders that day and not that many kids on the trail. Lots of things to look at and enjoy. Plenty of shaded areas and it appears they have a bench and possibly a Q pit?

We started at the eastern end at the Old Davis Road Parking Lot and headed west. UC Davis fruit trees on the right, Putah Creek flood plain on the left. It's tough to see the actual creek until you are about a mile down the levee. From there, you can walk down the creek but watch out for poison oak! We saw a few other people enjoying the levee walk. Dogs are welcome but please keep them leashed. Overall, it's a nice, easy stroll, but we recommend going in the morning to beat the valley heat.

They have a series of walking trails alongside lovely nature spots. We walked to the water drainage tunnels and had a fun time sitting in the shade. This was to the left if you're coming from the parking lot. They also have a helpful map up. We didn't stay too long, but it was a fun pit stop on our drive. It was also a great place to stretch out our legs. There were parking spots available, but I didn't notice any restrooms nearby. It seems like the hikes go along a creek.

Beauty every where and quiet spots if you are looking to get away from it all. But plenty of activity if you are bringing the kids. Different small areas strategically placed with slides, jungle gyms and even a big lady bug and bumble bee for the kids to climb on and sit! Quite cute. I may have a photo already posted of the play areas. If not will post on my next run. Many entrances to this vast area allow access which is convenient. You may enter one opening and exit another! There is an abundance of wildlife too. Your usual squirrels but also many varieties of birds! My fav! Song birds to big raptors. Even saw a hawk in a tree tearing apart something (yikes) for lunch! And in the dusk hours there are turkey vultures that fly in by the hundreds to roost. Quite a sight. Every season portrays the greenbelt in a different way. At the present time, spring has definitely sprung even though the middle of February. Daffodils, mums and lots of wild flowers and trees blooming which are just so beautiful. And the main trail which runs along side the bigger playground is covered by a canopy of trees and in the hot summer it can be cool enough to walk without being in the direct sunlight! One of the few outdoor places like that! People are friendly but doing their own thing. Bicycles allowed on the main trail but unfortunately some go way too fast! Luckily most are respectful as are the walkers of the bicyclists. If you want a little slice of heaven or alone time...this is the park for you!

There are cans for pet waste but no water is available. It is several miles outside of town and much less crowded than Toad Hollow off leash park.

The off-leash area has oak trees to provide shade. I think our friend Vince F. (who unfortunately passed away a few years ago) was instrumental in planting the oaks. It looks like people donate gallon containers of water for the dogs as there were many available at both entrances to the area. There is no running water and the only toilet facility is an outhouse. The dirt trail through the grasslands has benches and informational signage. We were there on a Friday morning and it was pretty quiet. There were only three other dogs and our guest was a bit shy and didn't interact with them. If we have other doggy guests we'll be taking them to Grasslands to romp.
