A huge playground that is a must see in Salisbury!

Ben’s Red Swings is one of those special playgrounds that you just have to see to believe. It’s hard to put into words exactly how expansive the park is. The playground is constructed out of composite wood and features a variety of climbing and sliding options for kids of all ages.

While little kids won’t be able to resist climbing through the larger equipment, there is a special area that’s built just for tots, complete with a sandbox. The park also features swings as well as a misting station for hot days (a unique and welcome feature for those sweltering eastern shore summers!) The really cool thing about the park is that visitors can walk directly from the playground into the free Salisbury Zoo that adjoins it! 

One thing to note, the park is huge. If you are taking more than one child, you may want to consider bringing an additional adult to help. At the very least, be sure to choose a meeting space in case you get separated. Our 5 and 7-year-old kids spent around 2 hours playing and STILL weren't ready to leave. We recommend visiting this park when you have a full afternoon to enjoy it. 

The park has bathrooms that are open seasonally and features a variety of ground coverings including mulch, paved sidewalks and solid foam surfaces. If your kids work up an apetite while playing, Evolution Craft Brewing is a short drive away and offers great food and craft brews!
