St. Ferdinand Park is a 64-acre park located at the intersection of North Lindbergh and St. Ferdinand Drive. This park has 5 picnic pavilions each having a BBQ pit of which 3 pavilions have electricity. There are 6 lighted ball fields along with 3 unlit fields. There are four playground areas in the park, 2 restrooms, 3 sand volleyball courts, 1 soccer field, 2 tennis courts, and a lake that can be used for fishing. The park is home to the summer concert series "Music Under the Stars" held adjacent to the lake during July and August. There are paved walking trails with fitness trail equipment and a little free library.
The 4 playgrounds are circled in red. The first one we encountered was the most southern one.
They had 2 sling swings, 1 adaptive swing, and 2 baby swings.
The pavilion and bathroom were close by, as well as the tennis courts.
They had several interesting climbers
My daughter liked the balance beam
Zipline
The play structure was large with several different slides, and tons of different bars and poles.
They had a xylophone as well. The playground is not shaded and can get hot but overall it had a nice variety of things to do for ages 2 to 12.
If you drive north around the park you will come to the other playgrounds. Here's the next one:
looking towards the lake to the north (you can fish here)
This is one play structure with several different slides, a cool tunnel, a steering wheel, speakers, a maze board, a musical board, a climbing wall, and a ladder.
Here's the smallest one in the park, it's basically just a slide and a pretend window. It's next to the sand volleyball court.
The last playground is the largest and newest. It's next to the lake and it's awesome! The equipment has a balloon theme which is so different and fun. This playground was replaced in late 2022.
This is the old playground, it was pirate-themed.
