Germania Park

I grew up playing at this park. Since then, they re-did the playground area (kind of sad to me, but looking back, probably necessary, haha). The kids seem to like the new area, though. This is kind of random, but there is a little table under a tree by the field that I've spent a lot of time at - it's a great place to rest in the shade while keeping an eye on your endlessly energetic kiddos as they run around on the field or ride their bikes on the track surrounding it. The pavilion is nice, too. I haven't spent a ton of time there recently, but I remember a few parties and things that I attended as a kid that made good use of it. I like taking night walks in this area - you can see the stars pretty clearly. Nostalgia may be tainting my perspective with a favorable bias, but I still recommend the place.

Overall, it's a nice park. The playground is for younger kids, anyone above 10 is probably not going to enjoy it very much. There is a public restroom that is open and a drinking fountain. There is some shade on the playground, but you probably would still need sunscreen if you were planning on staying for a while. There is also a soccer field, a sand volleyball court (bring your own net and ball), and a basketball court with 4 baskets. It is right by the Jordan Parkway trail and has a nice pavilion and picnic tables.

It's such a great park off of the Taylorsville/Murray side of the Jordan River trail... My toddler really enjoyed the soft/rubber floors. The area is very clean, and the slide wasn't hot even though it was 85 degrees outside.

It has a huge soccer area, picnic area, basket ball, and play area for kids. It's very close to Jordan trail. Restrooms are open (May 23), and are super clean.

I'm not too knowledgeable about this park. It was my first time here. I was at the park to coach a soccer game. The playing surface had a lot of damage but it was still great size field for the age. Not the worst field but far from the best. It didn't have the best parking for a soccer game but would be great for just a basic park visit.
