Provo’s newest park is the Delta Gateway Park down by the Provo River. This park has a super fun playground with a outdoors theme to match the river nearby. There is also access to the river where you can splash, throw rocks, fish, or walk along the Provo River parkway. Delta Gateway Park is the perfect spot to spend a half day exploring and playing together as a family.
Playground
The playground at Delta Gateway Park in Provo has a lot of climbing areas. The center of the play area is accessed via rope bridges or other rope structures. There are also quite a few climbing walls as ways to access the play area. We also really liked that there are fish statues, and other river related things since this park sits on the river. There are a bunch of slides throughout the playground and swings, too.
Provo River
What we liked most about this park was the location. It sits on the Provo River and you can walk right to the bank. This is a fun spot for kids to throw rocks or try their hand at fishing. Delta Gateway Park also has beautiful views of the mountains. It really sits in a lovely spot.
Trails
The park is also an entry point for some trails. You can hop on two different trails from this park: the Provo River Parkway, which heads west toward Utah Lake State Park or the Skipper Bay trail that heads west to walk along the Provo River Delta. We walked a little bit of the Provo River Parkway, and we enjoyed walking along the river and in the big shady trees. You can also walk east back toward Provo.
There are a few other amenities including restrooms, a small pavilion, benches, and a few picnic tables. Delta Gateway Park in Provo really is a fun place to spend a few hours together as a family. We are adding it to our 25 Best Parks in Utah County List.
