Located close to downtown Denver, the 155-acre Washington Park is one of the city’s favorite green spaces.
Any time of the year there are folks jogging, biking, walking dogs, doing yoga, or playing volleyball. The park has two lakes perfect for boating, kayaking, or fishing. One of the two flower gardens is designed as a replica of George Washington's Mount Vernon gardens and, with its explosion of colorful blooms, provides popular background for wedding photographs. There is an elegant boat house on Smith Lake. Large expanses of green space are intersected with hiking trails. There are several kids’ playgrounds.
