Lang-Royce Park, Ferguson




Location: 1200 Lang Drive, Ferguson, MO 63135

Website: https://www.fergusoncity.com/619/Lang-Royce-Park

Playground Ground Cover: Poured rubber

This is a smaller park, and there are no bathrooms. There is a pavilion next to the playground. The playground was replaced in 2025. It now has a poured rubber floor instead of dirt, and the equipment is much better. There are slides, rock walls, drums, spinners, floating steps, an interactive board, and lots of bars and poles for climbing.

There is a pavilion right next to the playground but I didn't see restrooms nearby. I think there is a concessions building straight ahead but don't know if they have restrooms and the hours that they are open, if so. 

                  


The playground was renovated in 2021 and it's a huge improvement. 



The smaller structure is for little kids under 2 and it has a slide and a speaker.


There are 4 sling swings here but no baby swings


Modified merry-go-round


The larger structure has several slides, a bridge, lots of climbers, chain climbers, stepping stones, and lots of bars and poles.
