Pleasant Park

Pleasant Park is one of the newest and most modern playgrounds in the Triangle. With bold, sculptural climbing elements, a massive rope tower, and a seasonal splash pad, this park feels like a futuristic play dream. There’s something for toddlers and big kids alike, plus paved trails, sports courts, and a shaded picnic area to round out the day. Go early or late in summer to avoid the midday heat — there’s less shade here than some older parks.
