Review & FAQ:
Kate Sessions Park is a spacious 79-acre public park named in honor of regional botanist and landscape architect Katherine Olivia Sessions, commonly referred to as the "Mother of Balboa Park" for her work on the design of the city's most notable public park. The park, which is located along the border of Pacific and La Jolla Beaches atop Lamont Street, offers stunning panoramic views of nearby Mission Bay and the Pacific Ocean. Two separate day-use park areas are offered, including a grassy lawn slope that serves as a popular spot for kite flying, ball playing, and picnicking for visitors throughout the summer months. Day-use picnic sites are also available in the section, along with barbecue grills, restrooms, and a 0.75-mile walking path. In the park's second area, a protected natural habitat area is offered, along with two children's playgrounds.
