Reviews
"There are two parks next to each other. One is a good park for 5 to 8 year olds. There is also a fun park for older kids that is like the Peter Pan and Lost Boys. Hands made with wood and arts and craft areas for kids to make things or contribute to the area. There are several tree house-type structures and a zip line for kids 6 and up. Great fun for FREE. Donations are accepted."
"What an adventure! We climbed and climbed before we built and painted additions to the structures. This spot is great for kids to get their hands dirty and try using some tools. There's a regular playground next door if you're little ones are overwhelmed by the big wooden structures."
"Funky fun! Reminds me of the old driftwood art in the wetlands. The kids I brought were underwhelmed though because they thought they were going to an amusement park style zipline. It's a cool place and there are kayaks & other water stuff nearby."
"This was my kids’ absolute favorite place to visit on our trip to Berkeley. It has something for every interest. Whether they are into construction and building, art, music, climbing challenges, treasure hunting, exploring, hide and seek, or even sitting quietly in a secluded spot, Adventure Playground offers it and more. While the zip line was an obvious favorite, there were so many other areas to play and explore that it wasn’t even listed as the best thing according to my kids. One loved the construction challenge and the other enjoyed pretend play and the slides in the large forts. It was actually so enjoyable that my kids asked to go back the next day because they hadn’t had enough of it. Even by the end of the second day, one of my kids commented that she hadn’t gotten to do everything. This is the type of place you could return to every week and find something new to discover each time. A must do in Berkeley for adventurous kids."
