Dornwood Park

We walk the back side, we have walked from where the water park is, its just not as naturey and more cleaned up. We love the nature-ness, finding cool plants to identify, find the moss, and looking for the Fun-Guy (fungus, mushrooms) very well maintained trails on both sides, the back side has what looks like may have been a well, the front side with the ball park and splash pad has the old "barn/house". Very great place to take kids and feel comfortable for them to go on trails and be with nature.

The first time going, and at first wasn't bad. My kids enjoyed this place a lot, but some parents were smoking Marijuana and drinking. And while my son sat in the grass by a power pole, he got a little shock in his hands and feet. His legs stayed tingling for an hour or so.

Fun water park and some interesting trails through an old dairy farm.

I hadn't been here in years..decided to take my son yesterday & I was very impressed! This place is awesome!! The trails through the woods are the best! We walked 4.4 miles & I could of stayed for hours!! Will definitely hit these trails again!!

I have spent nearly a year on these trails with my dog and I must admit these are some of the best trails I have ever hiked around this area of Kansas and this is coming from a country boy that has spent most of his life exploring nature. Dornwood trails and park are just a short drive from the south east side of Topeka which is filled with all the stores and restaurants one needs. Don't let the location fool you, I can tell a lot of care and attention has been given to them. I look forward to experiencing them more on my journey to a healthier body and mind. One of the best kept secrets of southeast Topeka.
