This is a big park right on the water with amazing views. Most of the park is flat with lots of picnic grounds, including barbecues, but it also extends up into the hills behind the park with hiking trails. Weekends can be crowded with lots of large families and groups occupying the picnic grounds. They have been doing some work replanting grass so it's going to be looking better really soon. Also there are a lot of early morning walkers, I do it and say hello to the s as me people

I don't like this park.

There were also little kids toddling around, with a structure geared to them. The playground is fenced in. There aren't a lot of benches, but there are a few shaded picnic tables. The bathrooms were present but seemed locked. Tennis courts down the hill. It's clean park with a lot to offer!

Baseball games were being played while there are two separate play areas designated for smaller and bigger kids. Shade areas are hard to come by on warmer days. There are two benches with cement barriers wrapped around tree areas. Both are used for seating, but the cement areas offer ample shade under the trees. The larger play area for bigger kids has many structures to explore, climb and slide down. During our three hour stint of play, our daughter had many kids to play with. Between the play structure, digging in dirt and playing with bugs, play happened throughout the play area. Parking can be limited ,especially during baseball season, since it is nestled in a residential area with street parking. It is a few minutes from Baskin Robbins if the little ones have earned a scoop.

Stop laughing. It's just that I'm not a fan of redundancy when it comes to adding up my daily steps. The park is primarily a rectangle with a bit of a wooded area, an easy-to-miss picnic area, and a paved perimeter around the baseball fields. This latter feature is inarguably convenient, especially for the baby stroller brigade and seniors who don't want to think about the terrain they're trodding. I don't either, but I need variety so I'll climb the steps to the hardly-used picnic grounds, make my way up to Navellier, and walk downhill on Moeser until I find myself back on the paved path again. It's called the Survivor trek of Cerrito Vista Park. Stop laughing. The main challenge with the paved perimeter is avoiding the occasional errant baseball and upholding safe distancing when it gets crowded. And indeed it does because shelter-in-place makes this park more attractive to the claustrophobically challenged. RELATED - Exploring El Cerrito?
