Kiroli Park is one of Louisiana's most beloved parks, and for good reason. The 150-acre park in West Monroe truly has something for everyone, including one of the most unique playgrounds in Louisiana. There are actually a few specialty playgrounds here, but this particular circus-themed playground is fun for all age groups.
With perfectly manicured gardens, tennis courts, fishing ponds, a dog park, and endless hiking trails, it's no wonder why folks love Kiroli Park.
One of the main attractions of this park is the many playgrounds you'll find, each one geared to a specific age group and sensory need.
The main playground has a whimsical circus theme, where your own little circus performers can put on quite the show.
The many realistic replicas of elephants, lions, and tigers are perfect for a "Greatest Showman" photo opportunity.
If you've got tiny tots, Papadeaux's Village is built specifically for them.
This little village is geared towards little ones who are 48" and under, so you won't have to worry about the older kids getting too rough around your youngster.
After the circus, explore the many hiking trails within the park.
They'll lead you deep into the forests where you can enjoy the sights and sounds of the area. The suspension bridge is always a big hit with the family!
Kiroli Park is open every day from 7 a.m. - 5 p.m., and admission is just $1 per person. Follow Kiroli Park on Facebook to stay up to date on the latest special events. Special characters like Santa and the Easter Bunny are known to make seasonal appearances!
For more adventures, consider heading down to New Orleans where you'll find the Audubon Zoo, one of the best zoos in the country!
