I love Gage Park. It has continued to change & grow with the community. This day I came here with a friend to have lunch @ the Rose garden. Even this late in the season, it is still vibrant with color. I love it! People are walking, kids & adults are playing, the trading goes by. Whats not to love? (I didnt even mention the wonderful zoo!)
Visited the World Famous Topeka Zoo. If youre in town be sure to stop by and see all the new exhibits and notice the future improvements.
Gage Park has so much to offer from fishing to the zoo to the dog park and the Discovery center! My favorite place to come in Topeka. Horseshoe pits 2 mile walk run bike trail! And the Pool in a great location your never far. Its awesome to hear the roar from the Lions while your kids are playing on the playground!
Just passing through and loved this stop. We arrived before sunset and the flowers were gorgeous. We had such an enjoyable time snapping photos and walking the grounds.
Topeka was by far my favorite stop passing through Kansas. This park was lovely and scenic. A perfect break during our family road trip. Cat camping is challenging but she was very relaxed in the tall meadows. I noticed there was an abundance of activities and never short of things to do here -- Amazing park!! 5 stars, would visit again.
Ive loved Gage Park since I was a kid! We had a great time as always. People were distancing themselves from other groups and were keeping a close eye on their kids.
Fantastic park! So much to do: the train ride, beautiful rose gardens and ponds with walks, zoo right by. Fun for kids of all ages (giant climbing animals and jungle gyms) and great for adults. Check out their website. Theres more than Ive described.
Very clean. Has a train for kids and has lots to do so you are never bored! I will say that my kid fell off of the alligator, so maybe should be a little safer!
Take my dog there 2-3 times a week to walk around and enjoy the fresh air. Well maintained and beautiful.
So refreshing to finally get outside with family & to celebrate birthdays etc. Gage Park is very beautiful & plenty of space between recreational park houses! Multiple family & friends are enjoying themselves at a safe distance during this historical period in life we are all living through the coronavirus epidemic. Felt at ease and comfortable outside the house for the first time in a long time THANK YOU!
Nice place to chill if you need some time to kill. Relaxing.
Beautiful park that offers the community so much! Great place to visit anytime, check out the rose garden.
I took my grandson here yesterday. He is 4. Granted, it was an absolutely perfect day so Im sure that helped, but this place is amazing.The park includes a playground with several pieces of equipment and swing sets. I love the mix of old and new. You can tell where the park has been updated and expanded. The old concrete type structures I loved as a kid (Im not that old but still... Lol!) are still there along with the new gigantic jungle gyms with monkey bars and climbing walls and slides. Its also well shaded and that makes a large difference.There is also a mini train. Right now, with social distancing, the conductor will seat you, but there is plenty of room. Very affordable. I paid $2 per person per ride. It takes about 10 minutes to complete the ride. The train tracks circle the entire park.There is also a carousel with hand carved wooden horses, but we didnt ride them.The park also includes the zoo. There is an admission fee for the zoo, but I found it to be inexpensive. The zoo is small and we were able to see it all within a couple of hours. One thing I really liked about the zoo was the layout. Ive been to zoos where its large and wide open with trees that arent shading any part of the walkway. This particular zoo seemed to have been carved out of a small forest. Clean and well maintained with lots of shade. I really did love it and plan to return soon.Definitely 5 stars all around.
Westlake Shelter House was awesome for our party. Good times.
Lovely park for the kids. Lots of picnic tables and beautifully maintained.
Pretty grounds, sat hear the horseshoe fields for a picnic and there were lots of muddy the treads. It was dry, but hard for my son to walk through. A good amount of shade and not too busy. Might try out the carousel and train after the pandemic is over. They also have tennis courts, a dog park, rose garden, greenhouse, zoo, theatre, and the Discovery Center is nearby. Would be nice to have a perimeter walking path, but not absolutely necessary. Oh and theres a rock garden, I think. But yeah, its a good sized park.
The park has multiple playgrounds, a zoo, a train, ponds, and so much more. Its a great place to take the family or relax on your own.
Fun, beautiful landscaping and plenty of fun for the kids. From the train to the play grounds, fishing and gardens.
Beautiful park! We rode the train, and it was awesome. Just long enough that the kids enjoyed it the whole time!
Some decent open area you can let the kids run and play.
Very pretty flowers and peaceful to walk around.but have seen snakes near the ponds so be careful
Best park Ive ever been to. Basically no graffiti or trash and ao many things to keep kids busy.
This was the zoo lights. It was amazing
Gave park is an amazing place for you and your family. There is much to do including the zoo, the carousel, the mini train, and much more.
With covid, theres nobody there. Makes it nice to take my son there and let him run around
Celebration of Life event. Ample parking. Clean event site & restrooms. Lots of trees. Can see Blaisdell pool in the distance. Children could run & play right outside the door, or across the street.
Great city park. Well kept with activities for all ages.
Fun place the kids love the playground equipment.
I have been coming to Gage Park for years and its beautiful everytime I come and visit from Arkansas!
I was there as a photographer for a wedding. Its a very beautiful place.
Topeka should be proud of this oark and others in the system. Combining the city and county parks and recs. has been a good decision.
Great place to take the granddaughters fishing. They always catch something!
I love going to Gage park bbqing and watching my friends play volleyball. We have a real good time.
Very nice park lots of things to do with your family and grandkids.
Its peaceful and relaxing
Went to bark in the park, dogs were having a great time. Couple humans did a little arguing
Carousel and train were cute and fun for my kids, and the pool is fun to bring your family too with water slides
Everybody had a wonderful time social distancing was great!
So many different play areas, all unique and spread out. Beautiful trees and oh, so many squirrels :)
Zoo, park, rose garden, dog park, playground, train and merry go round, pool in summer lots to do
Awesome park. Beautiful rose and rock gardens and the train ride is worth doing
Best thing in Topeka. Cutest park ever!
Fun for the kids. So many things to play on!
A must see the Japanese Garden
One of my favorite places to walk!
Absolutely beautiful parks! The dog park was well-maintained, the train is an adorable addition, and the rose garden is a must see.
Very well maintained, beautiful rose gardens & ponds. Will be going again!
Beautiful park to spend time in with lots of activities for kids!
Very fun place to go for the whole family!
I visit Gage Park often. There are paved walking trails perfect for mommy n me with strollers, seniors, and dog walkers. Beautiful flower gardens in the spring through winter make for a photographers dream. The antique merry-go-round is a must see and the train is every childs desire. The dog park is a safe place with separate areas for large and small dogs.
We love riding the train. They have a very large playground for kids of all ages
Took my daughter for her 1st birthday to the Zoo and park. What a wonderful experience for us as a family!! We loved it!!!
Really enjoyed the train ride. The park is very well maintained.
This is a beautiful place to walk around, it isnt too crowded and is filled with greenery.
My kids love Gage Park. It has a LOT of things for the kids to play on. There are big concrete animals, swings, slides, climbing things, and room to run. The rose garden is beautiful during the summer. The train is a must, currently its $2 per person. The carousel is another attraction to the park, I cant remember that cost. The zoo is right across from it. You could spend a whole day here. There are picnic tables scattered throughout the park.
Best place to walk outside to see plantings
I grew up in Topeka and have always loved this park. I love how they have kept the cool old stone play area, but have also added new fun things. We love to stop by the park when we visit. My kids love it too.
Great park! The train and carousel were really sweet
It is nice to sit there and look at the scenery.
The Roses were gorgeous
Stopped here by chance; delightful!
The park is great! There are fun things to do for families like the Discovery Center, Topeka Zoo, a carousel, a train, a pool, tennis courts, and basketball courts. The park’s big enough that you can find a quiet place to sit under the trees. The rose garden is also beautiful in the summer and fall.
We loved taking our kids here Nd now we are able to enjoy it with our grandchildren
Lots of renovation here. In spring the flowers and trees are beautiful. This is s great place for photography. The zoo is improving and we always LOVE the little train.
Its a good place to go to for walk or to have a fun outside
Love taken my kiddos here
Nice place and kids enjoy well.
Beautiful and family friendly fun. My nephews had a blast on the playground and the mini train.
Fun place to walk, my dog loves to look at the animals at the zoo
They are revamping some of it so it a bit confusing Ng when you first get there. But it is lovely and has so much for the kids to do!
The park and the zoo across the street where awesome
Great little zoo! Easy walk so you can make multiple passes. Not the best zoo for photography but will do.
Beautiful gardens and multiple interesting buildings,a dog park,a large play area and a train car to play on.
The greatest park Ive ever been to, to include major metropolitan parks. Great playgrounds, great facilities, beautiful. The mini train was a big part of my childhood when I visited here as a child, now its my daughters favourite thing.
The kids had a really good time
Always a wonderful walking area. The scenery is beautiful.
Great park lots to do!
Im a flower lover so I gravitated toward the flower gardens. Beautiful.
Nice place! Lots of equipment for kiddos to play :D (the playground is free if you didnt know, heh).There is also a zoo and dog park nearby.
Really enjoyed my morning here.
