In the midst of a pandemic one of the local challenges in Visalia California has been where to eat of course- and where to workout with both local gyms and restaurants forced to close due to COvid-19.
This lead many people to be innovative with the activities that keep their family healthy and active and decided to take their workouts outdoors to local parks.
Whether you enjoy walking, running, or full body circuits you can choose from any of the top five places to escape the madness of the house and get active at one of these parks below.
- Mill creek Park. Located off of Mill Creek and Lovers Lane in Visalia California, Tulare County. This park features a walking loop under shady trees to help beat the heat as well as a very large grassy area for all your workout essentials. https://www.visalia.city/depts/parks_n_recreation/parkinfo/mill_creek_garden.asp
- RiverWay Sports Park. Located off of the Highway 63 and North Dinuba Boulevard near the St. Johns River. This Park may have had plenty closed off to deter family from gathering here, but it left many benches open- 6 feet apart for full body workouts and outdoor circuits. https://www.visalia.city/depts/parks_n_recreation/parkinfo/riverway_sports_park.asp
- Mooneys Groove Park. located off one of the busiest streets in Visalia California the famous Mooney Blouvard is Mooney’s grove park. This park has specific hours during different seasons so be sure to check first. This also has a small fee but it helps support the local park and maintenance.https://tularecountyparks.org/park-cards/mooney-grove-park/
- Plaza Park. located right off the Highway 198 on Plaza drive. This park is one of my favorites because of all the wildlife. From ducks to fish and the dog park across the street it makes a nice active family day outdoors. https://www.visalia.city/depts/parks_n_recreation/parkinfo/plaza_park.asp
