Washington Park — Attraction in Escondido

Are you planning to take your bikes out for a ride on the Escondido Creek Trail? This park is about 1.5 miles from the south-west end of the trail so it could be a perfect starting or ending point for you and your kids.

He also really enjoyed watching the swimming lessons that were in session.

Enter with caution, if you are disabled or have trouble with balance- definitely have someone with you to help you get in and out. They do give you a warning, about 10-15 min prior, when they are about to close the pool. Highly...

Grew up swimming here and ive played basketbally a few times. There are almost always people playing pick up games in the evenings. The new skatepark layout doesn't flow very well. The lines cross eachother for many of the features but its still better than nothing and nice for a beginner. Best to go later in the evening if you want to avoid the crowds of kids and you want to avoid waiting more...
