Redwood Grove Playground at McClaren Park
Perched high above San Francisco, McLaren Park's Redwood Grove Playground presents a captivating urban experience amidst the city's natural beauty. Nestled within the expansive McLaren Park, this playground stands as a testament to thoughtful design and community collaboration. With elements inspired by the park's topography, the playground seamlessly blends into its surroundings, boasting a multi-level log tower accessed through various routes, including a large log jam, and an exhilarating 20-foot stainless steel tube slide for an exciting descent. Offering climbing opportunities, log steppers, and an embankment slide, the playground caters to diverse adventurers of all ages, complemented by seating and hammocks that encourage leisurely observations and cloud-watching.
Envisioned as part of the Let’s PlaySF initiative, the Redwood Grove Playground and Group Picnic Area emerge as a remarkable result of community-driven planning and collaboration. Reflecting the desires of park users and residents, this playground remains a significant asset for underserved communities, celebrating the area's natural surroundings while providing a harmonious space for children and families to gather and play.
If the playground is too big for your littles, just climb a little ways up the hill to Louis Sutter Playground, a playground about 1000 feet away more appropriate for kids 2-5!
