Things to See & Do

Let the kids loose on the Kids Kastle II playground, shoot hoops at the Murray Memorial Basketball Courts, or bring a picnic to the pavilion by the Wallkill River, where there is a fishing area. In winter the park's hills are used for sledding.

Best Time of Year to Visit

Winter, once there is snow on the sledding hills. The volleyball court is seasonal, so summer is the time for that.

Tips and Tricks

There are no garbage cans at Sparta Recreation's parks because of bears. Carry your trash out and do not leave bags in the park.
