This has always been my favorite park in Albany to walk through casually and great for spending a…read moremorning or afternoon at. The park is moderately large sized and during the annual Tulip Festival, parking is hard to come by, otherwise is okay any other day. The park has a center stage fountain and many beds of flowers. In my opinion, it's the most beautiful in April and May, when all the tulips are in full blossom. There are also several trail areas to walk and during the Tulip Fest, the area is totally filled with food trucks and vendors. Year after year, there is an increased amount of food trucks and vendors, which seems to show how it has become largely popular. I enjoy my visits to Washington Park whenever I am in the area and will most definitely do so in the future.

A nice children's play area was also available, plus lots of grass for kicking a ball around. There were great views of the Hudson River as well as the highway and railroad bridge. Sadly, no trains went by while we were there. They have nice campgrounds which we drove by on the way in, which seemed isolated from each other and well designed. At least a couple of hiking trails were also observed. Well worth the $6 cover charge to get in.

As a new skater, I was very worried about falling. They offer tables that they put on the ice that you can use to balance yourself. They do not charge you to borrow one of these tables for as long as you want it. I had never seen one of these tables before, but it was so helpful. I did not fall on the ice and I actually made it around the park a few times. I am really happy with the city of Albany for making this skating rink available, and at such reasonable prices. Way to go Albany!

If you find yourself in Saratoga for any reason at all (horses, golf, family, passing through,…read moreetc.), do yourself a favor and spend some time in the park. I've actually been to Saratoga several times before, and this was my first visit to the park, and it is BY FAR my favorite thing in Saratoga. The grounds are beautiful, and surprisingly large. The large buildings that house the Roosevelt Spas and more are well-kept, with the areas around them landscaped and looking like a beautiful college campus. There are also miles of hiking trails, equestrian trails, fishing, biking, disc golf, boating, and more. We weren't quite prepared, but walking around the park was enough. The tall trees, the running water...I just needed a little nature in my life. There is a reason that the Saratoga Springs are known far and wide, and the weirdly salty, effervescent water purportedly has a ton of beneficial properties. It also creates strange and wonderful rock formations, and you'll come across a few spigots where you can taste the water, and see how it affects the rock around it. I highly recommend doing a bit of exploring.

The numerous natural mineral springs are like little shrines and a hoot to sample - each one tastes different from the others, some more tolerable, some not; and all allegedly good for whatever ails you. Viewing the old spas and bathhouses (the Roosevelt baths) are stately and impressive. A nice visitor's center and gift shops are situated in a couple. During peak season, it costs $10 per car to enter the park - but it'd be worth it! - during this off-peak period it's no-charge. And the fall foliage colors are great!

Even nearly 18 months after it opened, it still was graffiti free and looking nice. Plus, it overlooked the river and TWO different sets of railroad tracks. Seeing three trains go by while were were playing on it certainly boosted this railfan's review! (And, unbelievably, my cousin who was on one of the Amtrak trains and lives in NYC spotted us train watching as she rolled by!) We traveled over from the Corning Preserve to Quackenbush square, walked around a bit, and came back. Our toddler liked it when we kicked a rubber ball along the walkway (hot tip: if you kick it and he doesn't get it, you better run because it will roll down the hill!) There wasn't a lot of shade but it was overcast that day so it worked out. It isn't a huge "park" but it sure beats a barely used highway ramp which is what it used to be. The fact that you can get a nice, different perspective of the downtown area makes it a fun place to explore for a little while. And it is free. And... it is near trains. Don't wake me... I must be dreaming.
