A nationally recognized, award-winning riverfront park with beautiful flower beds, exercise equipment, and walking paths along Ohio between the two stadiums. Plenty of terrific photo ops and a great place to study the Roebling Bridge on a walk with your dog. Very family friendly. Food options in and around the park. Well maintained grounds make this a wonderful place to spend an afternoon on a beautiful day. Highly recommend!

Absolutely fantastic riverfront park on the Ohio River. Lots of features, flora, and activities for kids, a great place to bring your family. Plenty of parking (paid) is available nearby, and it's an easy walk into the city center and ballpark where there are tons of other stores and shops. Highly recommended.

Cincinnati takes pride in terrific parks, and Washington Park is a sterling example of the great lengths the city will go to make sure we have nice public outdoor spaces. Washington Park has it all - entertainment for children, food, music, lots of programming, beautiful paths and some of my favorite flower beds in town. It's always beautiful when the tulips are blooming! We love the food festivals held here.

We always feel safe and sound down there. The kids like the playground area. There is always plenty of security around and we have never had any issues. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. We love outings around town. The opening day parade was great from this location.

This is a gorgeous park with a great location and a lot to see and do. It overlooks the Ohio River and is home to the Krohn Conservatory, the Playhouse in the Park, and the Cincinnati Art Museum. The overlook is fantastic, providing some great photo ops, and there is a variety of gardens, statues, and trails throughout. Highly recommended!

Nice park. The nearby neighborhood is also called Eden Park and is a historic part of Cincy. We visited the Krohn Conservatory in Eden Park which was featuring the Butterflies from Madagascar show which was a truly fabulous experience. It's a great place for a family outing, picnic, walk or run. Highly recommended.
