What a great place to spend the afternoon. They have the coolest little cave rock structures here. If I was homeless I would sneak in here and sleep at night. My husband brought his trials bike and was jumping on them. They are really cool. Plenty of play structures and swing sets for children to play on. There was a family having a birthday party here. They were using the barbeque's and all of the picnic tables are under awnings. I can imagine sitting in the sun in the Phoenix summer while eating a hot dog isn't the most enjoyable thing. They had sand in the play area. A dad and his two little girls were building a really cool sand castle. I took a picture of it. I don't like sand because cats poop in it at night. That was the only bad thing about it. Loved it and my husband wants one like it built near our house so he could go trials riding on the rocks.

This has got to be one of the best parks in Phoenix. My wife and I frequent Cesar Chavez Park…read morefrequently. We love to take walks around the magnificent lake which has an incredibly good and convenient concrete path good for walking, jogging or biking! They have plenty of trash receptacles, lots of shade trees and benches for watching the water or the birds. My recommendation of Cesar Chavez Park may sound like a commercial, but I wholeheartedly think it is an underutilized place. Sure, I encounter many families enjoying the picnic areas, kids on the playground area, some fishing going on... but mainly on weekends. This place beets the mall anytime for wiling the time away, enjoying some fresh air or just contemplating Mother Nature at its best as structured by man. It's amazing what this park has to offer, everything one can imagine or want and hard to think so much is here in a park like Ball Field; Basketball Court; Dog Park; Drinking Fountains; Grill/Picnic Area; Playground; Racquetball Court; Recreation/Community Center; Restrooms; Shade Structures; Skate Park; Soccer Field; Tennis Court; Urban Fishing; Volleyball Court; and Lake. This is one of the best local parks, recreation and cultural facilities, and uses of open spaces in Phoenix. We are so happy that we happened to be just a few minutes' drive from it.

Cesar Chavez Park is a not- so- little gem in the Laveen area…read more Located near Baseline Rd and 35th Ave., this park is fairly expansive and offers something for everyone. There's plenty of green space for an impromptu ball game with friends, a picnic with family or a run on your own. The pond is stocked with fish, so feel free to bring your pole along. In the mood for a read? Check out the on site library. If you're in the mood to read aloud, the geese and swans may volunteer to be your audience. LOL! It's amazing to have such a gem in the Phoenix area. Don't deprive yourself. Check it out!

The grilling setup was probably the nicest I've ever seen for a public park. There were probably 20-30 individual picnic table areas each with their own grill. They also had a covered area with even bigger grills. There were even peacocks walking around! Numerous baseball/softball fields, as well as playground equipment. I would definitely come back here and bring people.

When we came there were a few homeless people sleeping in the grass and a homeless women taking a shower in the water spigot but they didn't bother us or the kids. There's also a dog park further down the hill. We didn't visit it so we don't know much on it. We are thinking of coming back at a later time with our dogs.

And easier hike for many…read morewith a nice incline and you have the best of both worlds with a more rugged terrain to begin with and then and easier hike on a paved road all the way to the top. Love the fact they have several checkpoints to rest and enjoy the scenery. It's about a little over a mile hike to the top peak. Once you reach the top peak, amazing 360 views of surrounding Phoenix. Popular spot for an amazing sunset that falls behind the mountains. If you're more adventurous, they also have a different route that offers all rugged terrain from the bottom up. Love this park as there's plenty of parking and restrooms around. Less crowded than other nearby mountain parks but it can get busy during sunset hours. Lots of picnic tables and pavilions to enjoy your stay more.

Not much for shade parking was easy and free, trails are what you'd expect trails but they were clear of trash and unkept they do look like they are doing phases for upgrades to this particular area.
