Veterans Memorial Park — Attraction in Klamath Falls

Whether your taking a stroll, waking dogs, or just relaxing and enjoying the view out over the lake, there is bound to be something to do here.

They tend to congregate around the public restrooms so if you visit the park, be very cautious of using the facilities since you don't know what you may come across inside or outside the building.
