A pretty park in the middle of Aksarben. Over the last nearly 12ish years, it's remained relatively…read morethe same. With some additions like parks, and more festivals. I've attended events here since 2013 as I lived in the Village. You can find conerts, zumba, yoga, etc all in the park. It's fun to bring the kids and let them run around. There is a lot of play space and open greenery. It's a beautiful park with trails connecting to the Papio. Very worth it to make a day of it and bring a blanket and enjoy the views.

"It's not that hot in the shade" my daughter insisted, pointing her camera up to the tree crowns…read morehigh above us. This park is full of a huge variety of mature trees, which makes for good birdwatching and bug watching, slime mold watching, etc. There is also a playground here, a pavilion, a dog park, a frisbee golf course, and a lagoon. I think the children's pool and tennis center are still here as well, on the south edge of the park. There is a big greenhouse here for growing plants for the city parks but unfortunately it was severely damaged during an intense hail storm this summer. The park is fairly clean though some trash was piled up next to the trash cans since obviously they had not been emptied. Other than that, I don't have any complaints. A lot of Canada geese are sometimes by the lagoon, so if you're afraid of them, don't go over there. No worries! They are little hissing dinosaurs.

We went to Hanscom Park to play the 9 hole disc golf course. I really enjoyed this course - it is…read moreshort and sweet, but a fun course with all the trees. I'm a beginner but would play this again.

This is such a great playground that is accessible to all. We had a great time going here with…read morefriends, and I really appreciated that the entirety of the playgrounds ground was a rubberized structure, as my daughter falls quite a bit it seems. The playground had a variety of different pieces of equipment and a lot of areas to sit. I would recommend entering from 156 and F as the park is on the west side of the lake.

Approach is a great climbing gym given the lack of sport climbing options in the Omaha area!…read more Although I don't live here, I do come often enough that it's a relief knowing they change their routes (by wall sections) regularly. They offer auto belay and top rope options--they do have bolts for leading too (short, 3-bolt routes). Additionally, they also have an area dedicated to just bouldering. The staff are always friendly and helpful. You'll occasionally see the owner with her dogs, too! Pricing is very reasonable and on par with most climbing gyms. If you plan on coming in during the week, pre book your climbing session online for a really great discount! Also, they do offer rental gear if you need it--shoes, harness, and chalk are all available. And you can also buy some gear if you're ready to commit. The only reason why I'm rating them 4 stars instead of 5 stars is because a lot of their intermediate and higher routes are reachy and there's not a short-person beta built into them. Even with this though, they are still the best public climbing gym in the Omaha/Lincoln metros!

We had a good experience today checking out this climbing gym with our toddler. There is a separate…read morekids room which is an awesome well thought out separate space for kids to explore with a slide, swing, some climbing walls and soft mats. It is probably more suited for kids aged five and up but my two year old (and 10 month old) were still happy to explore. The gym has a nice energy with vending machines with healthy snacks and people of all ages climbing. They offer punch cards for kids and trying out the gym is very reasonable (was $7 for us today). We will definitely add it to our rotation of cold weather Omaha activities for active kids! It is also nearby a few good Asian restaurants (Dumpling Empire and Korea Gardens).
