Boone Park South Playground — Attraction in Jacksonville

This park is awesome and seems to have been designed by someone who loves spinning. There are 2 spinning seats in particular that I highly recommend.

There is also a series of fitness challenges complete with instructions and equipment such as pull up bars, wooden steps and the like to help complete them.

Features of the South section of Boone Park include a much nicer playground donated by Delores Weaver, trails,...
