Winchester Park Bouldering Playground

If your kid has aged out of the typical playground scene, this one’s worth knowing about. The bouldering structure is actually legit — built for the 10-and-up crowd who want something with a bit more challenge than monkey bars. It’s right on the Jordan River corridor, so you can tack on a bike ride or walk the trail before or after. The lighting situation is solid too, which means it stays usable into the evening without feeling sketchy. Grab a BBQ spot on a weekend and make an afternoon of it — there’s a little pond nearby with ducks that honestly makes the whole spot feel a lot more tucked-away than you’d expect for Murray.
