Parks of Reno, Sparks, Washoe County and around Nevada Truckee River Whitewater Park
Reno and Sparks have parks, hundreds of acres of them. Name just about any human sporting, recreation, or relaxing endeavor, and there's probably an area park in which to engage your activity (or lack thereof). There are even dog parks, lest Fido be left out of the fun. Way too many to list here, so please go to the respective Web sites for information on the what and where of our park scene.
