Washoe Park's playground is near the centre of the park, just west of the swimming pool. It has the usual complement of facilities, such as swings, slides, climbing structure, little ride-em fixtures, etc. The washrooms are nearby, as are picnic facilities and parking. This is definitely a good place to stop for a play break.

This was the first park in the City of Anaconda, opened in 1890. In the same year a city tramway system was constructed, with a line running from the city centre out to the park. With such easy access the park became a social centre, seeing events and picnics, both impromptu and company sponsored, filling the park through the summers. This is a beautiful park with Warm Springs Creek running through, playgrounds, tennis courts, a basketball court, workout area, swimming pool and a baseball field.
