Franklin Park

Right on Minnesota Ave with Lake Superior basically in your backyard — this one’s hard to beat if you’ve got kids who need accessible play space near the water. The setup works well for families with different mobility needs, which honestly isn’t something every Duluth park can say. You’re not going to find a ton of bells and whistles here, but the lake views do a lot of the heavy lifting. Good spot to let the little ones run around while you actually decompress for five minutes.
