Chesney Park Playground

Chesney Park is one of those spots in Topeka that actually has something for everyone in the family, which isn’t as common as you’d think. The BMX track gets a solid crowd on weekends, and the basketball court is well-used enough that you’ll usually find a pickup game happening. Little ones between 2 and 12 have plenty to keep them busy on the playground side. Fire up the BBQ, grab the gazebo, and you’ve got yourself a decent afternoon without spending a dime.
