Cool Hangouts: Rooks Park
A great place to kick back and relax, Rooks Park in Walla Walla, WA provides a serene setting for recreational activities. Located off of Hwy 12 (follow the signs) to the east of Walla Walla, Rooks Park flaunts beautiful views of the surrounding terrain and landscape, while providing access to over 20 miles of trails in the Walla Walla area. It also sits next to Mill Creek and a small dam on the river.
If it’s wildlife viewing you’re after, Rooks Park is the perfect place to come and view animals of all kinds. A variety of ducks, squirrels, and other land animals make their home near the park, so you will have plenty of opportunity to view them. If you like taking groups to play games, the park offers a huge field and opportunities to play soccer, football, frisbee, etc. And if you have kids, a playground offers even the littlest members of the family something to do.
Although many would prefer the mall over an outdoor outing, winter is fast approaching, and that means limited times to get out and do fun stuff. Take advantage of the warm weather while it is still here. See you out there!
