I gave this four stars, despite the likelihood that many people may love this little spot, and rate it a full five stars. It is important to understand that this park will really appeal to those who enjoy or are prepared for its activities. Small, shallow pools for kiddos, and on up to light/slight water rafting.
Very nice spot. Early mornings there are so relaxing for me. I do hope that when the demolition of the meat packing building across the river is complete that the area will be used to inhance the atmosphere with hopefully a park type or natural type theme rather than commercial endeavors! With the buildings gone there is a spectacular mountain view from the deck.
Its great a place like this exists in the city just wish the sides of it were not so industrial.
Cold water but great place to take kids for a week night activity
Thats my spot dont go please just kidding its awsome
Nice people and friendly dogs
Kayak Park should have 5 stars. But with the death of several animals due to a parvovirus outbreak recently, I do not feel right giving it perfect marks. Otherwise, the fields are beautiful, the restrooms are clean with wheelchair access, and the dog park is a great place to bring a dig that has all of its shots.
Not a place for families. Not really a park. Its a newish deck along side a river with a few rapids. Water smelled a bit off in the area. Might be fun for adults in tubes or kayaks but families should skip this and go to High Adventure Park instead.
A very beautiful place to go
Nice deep swimming hole right by the 24th Street bridge...
I love the shade, but cant use your smart phone. No 4G
Awesome hidden spot... cool place to visit even if you dont kayak!
Great place to walk the dogs.
This is a great place for a dip when its hot in the summer. It used to be fairly challenging for kayaks... But not so much so after a search and rescue mission necessitated the movement of some of the mid-stream boulders. Still worthwhile for that sort of activity overall. Plenty of fishing to be had at this site as well. Just downstream for Fort Beunaventura and within easy walking distance of all the downtown Ogden motels.
Caught some nice size trout
It a great place to swim and take your kayak
Nice fishing spot for trout
Water is high at the moment so be careful getting in the water, besides being cold .
It doesnt have a great place to take out if you actually want to kayak from here. But it has a beautiful deck for river viewing and an area to splash around. We kayaked from Riverdale kayak park and took out just upriver along the bike path.
Had fun with my crew at the 1st aid station helping to clean up the area. Sad to say the picture shows 1 of 2 box springs that were semi buried at the edge of the river. We let Ogden City know so hope they can get them both out.
Great pLace now during the run off
Great peaceful place but avoid early in the morning and later at night as the homeless are there during those times....and they pester for money cigarettes and alchol as well as use drugs. Wish it would be cleaned up I enjoy going here
Ok short ish walk
While its fun to climb on the tracks and see a couple nice views, I feel like I have to avoid stepping on heroin needles if I step of trail
Very quiet and so peaceful
Water is running very high today. May 19, 2019.
Nice big observation deck... but trash cans overflowing. Bathrooms are down the road at the parking lot... but they were locked.
Kayak park in the middle of the city. As of now the top hole looks pretty keepy on the far side at 1070cfs.::::Edit from a play session:::: It has soo much potential but needs work. The top hole doesnt look friendly at this level(1150cfs) and could be potentialy dangerous. I didnt even try it. The lower hole spits you out very easily.
Simply beautiful
Kayak parks are the bees knees yo
