About Palomar Reserve

Playground and Swings at Palomar Reserve

Palomar Reserve Playground has undergone a complete renewal, and its new play structure combines platforms, a slide and monkey bars with a play shop element. A renovated swing set sits alongside the structure, and a shade sail covers the play area. All play equipment has been moved away from the park's fig tree, so the ground beneath the tree can return to a more natural state. The playground is listed as a small playground, which suits a shorter visit with younger children.
