Greenville Playgrounds: Gower Park

Gower Park

Gower Park is a tucked-away neighborhood park with sports fields, a disk golf course, covered picnic tables, trails, and a nice shaded playground with a kid-friendly zip line. On top of this, the playground is conveniently nestled in the shade of towering trees, making it ideal place to visit on a sunny afternoon in Greenville.

This 21-acre park is a great place to enjoy some peace and quiet. Nestled between the towering trees that provide ample shade for the playground and surrounding areas, Gower Park is our go-to spot for a picnic, outdoor play or simply a change of scenery.

 It has one well-shaded big structure in the middle of a play area with the trees providing a natural shade.

and a zipline, which we really enjoyed to the fullest.

With the seat close to the ground, a shallow incline, and a very minimal kick-back at the ends of the rope, my 4-year-old could easily get on and off the seat and push herself all the way through on her own.  

 

There are shaded pavilions throughout the park that are perfect for a picnic or birthday parties.

Overall, this is a nice, quiet neighborhood park that is ideal to visit on a sunny afternoon to play in the shade of tall trees.
