“Full of things to see and do!”
Shawnee Mission Park, a multi-use, 1,600-acre park is located at 79th and Renner Road in Shawnee, Kansas. The land was purchased through the District's initial bond issue in 1956 and officially dedicated on May 30, 1964. It is the largest park in the county and the most visited park in the entire state of Kansas. Shawnee Mission Park is home to a number of fantastic amenities as well as a beautiful 120-acre lake. Our beautiful scenic lake is a very popular spot for boating, fishing, sail boarding, and much more. The park also has twelve spacious shelters, numerous picnic areas, nature trails, play areas, an archery range, a 53-acre dog off-leash area, a disc golf course, and is a great place to enjoy mountain biking and horseback riding. The park is also home to The Theatre in the Park, Shawnee Mission Park Beach, and Shawnee Mission Park Marina. In season, there are canoes, pedal boats, and fishing boats available for rent at the marina.
We enjoyed this park. There was lots to do, and it was spread out. We saw walkers, joggers, bikers, paddle boats, canoes, kayaks, swimmers, and more. There was a marina in the park. We'd definitely come back if in the area.
The trails here are somewhat easy since some of them are paved. There are also a lot of activities that you can enjoy here so visiting in summer is the best time for you and your family to go here. You can try walking, doing picnics and even flying kites.
