Directions

A 79-acre Far North Side park with a beloved vintage carousel, miniature golf, a large field house, ice skating rink, and one of the city's best toboggan slides in winter. It's a true neighborhood park with strong community programming and a refreshingly local, non-touristy feel. The toboggan slide is a genuine Chicago winter tradition that most visitors never discover. Summer weekends bring lively family crowds but it rarely feels overwhelmed.
