Paved walking trail with lot of trees around. It also has swings for big kids and toddlers, portable restrooms. There are several pavilions and picnic tables suitable for a great picnic or outdoor parties. Pavilions can be rented. It's attached to an outdoor splash park with water attractions including a massive dump bucket. Adequate parking. Felt safe as it's located next to the police station. There are plenty of places nearby to grab a bite within the walking distance.

The playground is huge and looks like so much fun for children. There's also a gated waterpark right next to the play ground called H20 Spray park. Not sure when it opens to the public but I believe you do have to pay to enter. As you walk further down, you'll see a concession stand and another building with outside seating along with a hanging sign that says Westand Lions Club. And There's a pond area with a fountain in the middle. Lastly, there's a soccer field with a 2 lane track going around it - 1 lap is 0.5mi. After exploring the area, I went around the track a few times. I had a Very nice time.

I'm a pet owner and love to walk her [Abby] here, I have to mention way to many people aren't doing the right thing and cleaning up after their dogs. Owners who say the poop bags aren't earth friendly, that's a crock! I only buy bags that break down and you can too! Anyway, I hate to say to many nice things, then everyone else goes then it gets crowded splash zone, play grounds, skate board concrete area which is amazing, wish I had that growing up. Food/snack stand, picnic areas, just a beautiful park.

Dynamite Park is a large park that is directly next to the Wayne County River Rouge park…read more                 Dynamite Park is a rustic area.  There are just a couple of picnic tables and no lavatories.  Nevertheless it is a nice location for a picnic.  The park has several areas set aside as wildlife areas.  A visit here can give anyone an overview of the present state of natural recovery in most places in Michigan.                 Deer, coyote, raccoon, opossum, hawks, fish and the occasional eagle frequent the place.  Look for tracks wherever you can.  During Spring and Autumn you may well cross paths with one or more of the wild residents.  This is an excellent place for birdwatching.  The birds that appear here range from waterfowl, to forest birds and meadow / open space birds.                 On the edge of the park is a trail leading to 'The Cliffs of the Rouge' which is a natural wonder featuring a set of cliffs towering over the River Rouge.  A visit in any season will provide a unique natural viewpoint to be enjoyed by nature lovers and appreciated by students of nature.                 Walking, hiking, snowshoeing and limited biking are all natural opportunities here.  There is plenty of open space for frisbee, baseball, football or soccer on the green fields near the water station.  The fields are not marked - these would all be impromptu games played with changing boundaries.  Have fun!

It offers a walking trail around the park and also around a wooden pond area in the back of the park. They mentioned that the trail may have ticks so we did not explore the backside.

Lots of black squirrels which I've never seen outside of Michigan. I took photos and named all of them. There are multiple entries into this park and lots of parking on a rock or gravel lot.

The park is open daily until 10pm. There are many amenities including a civic ice arena, playscapes, picnic tables, covered pavilions and baseball diamonds complete with bleachers and lights for night games. My favorite feature is the 1.2 mile asphalt walking path that circles through the park and accommodates bikers/skaters in one direction and walkers/runners in the other. The only drawback is the squirrels who people have fed over the years to the point now where they walk right up to you asking for food. There are always people in the park but it's never too crowded. It is well kept and even has bags conveniently located for dog owners to use to clean up after their pets. If you live in the Garden City, Wayne, Westland, Inkster or Dearborn Heights area and enjoy outdoor recreation then this park should be on your list.

The roads surrounding the park are dirt and it had just rained so getting in and out of the car wasn't pleasant. The basketball court had no rims and one of the backboards had fallen down. There were a few benches and the playground were in decent condition. At first I saw a board with measurement conversions and thought it was a learning thing. 3ft=1yd. On the back there's a height chart that you find at convenience stores or in police mug shots. That's weird. And one of the slides had a bullet hole in it. Looks like a .45 caliber fired from a house next to the park. That explains the height chart I guess. So it was a decent park but... We won't be back
