This is a park with walking and biking trails wih ample access to the truckee river. Typically quiet and has enough room to not have to crowd any particular arrea. This is also a quality place to see spring blooms and fall color changes in the area. There is a small parking lot that is pretty safe since there is really no other reason to be in this area unless you are using the park. As far as naming of this park, I believe it was named after Dr. Massoud Dorostkar, an anesthesiologist in Reno who donated the tract of land for use as a park. What I dont know is how to properly prononuce the Persian surname Dorostkar. is it DO-roast-car or duh-RAWST-kahr? Either way this is a great scenic hike and picture worthy site that is a short bike ride from downtown.

Great place to cool off on a hot day. Instead of one big beach packed with loads of people,…read moreDorostkar has a dozen or so small private beaches. The best part is that all the beaches are on the south side of the river with thick vegetation behind you so no need for beach umbrellas. On a 100 degree day it's 75 on the beaches at Dorostkar, bring a couple tubes and you can float to the dam at Ambrose park and then walk back and do it again!!

Rose Highway, which was approximately a 5 mile round trip. The trail has a very gradual elevation gain and is mostly shaded by trees, so currently there are some icy parts on the trail. We used crampons and had no issues. I'm always looking for a new spot to hike and recommend it if you haven't already done it.

It didn't matter to me because I found a spot in the shade where I could listen to the creek. When I was leaving I saw that there is another whole area to explore which I plan to do soon. I've been working on visiting all the parks in Reno ever since I moved here 11 years ago. I think this may be one of my favorites. Next time I'll take pics!

Cute little find near our neighborhood. This park is tucked in the neighborhood and if you follow…read morethe directions from Maps, you're sure to get lost because you're gonna drive right past it. They're technically not wrong because there is a little parking area where the map pin takes you but there's no sign and you can't see the park from the road so take a look at the map and pick one of the streets that goes up and around and you'll find the top of the park where the playground are situated. The spot has a lot going forward in terms of green space, with a nice big grassy area for picnics. Above that there is a sand pit that I can only assume is for volleyball, but I did not see a net and then next to it you'll find a basketball court. There's also an asphalt walking path that kind of runs around the grassy area and up towards these courts however, it's not exactly maintained or are the courts concrete surfaces, but other than that, it is very well maintained and nicely shaded for a meeting friends and hanging out. The playgrounds are also a bit on the older side, but my younger son not five years old found plenty to play with. This one's not a destination, but it could certainly be added to the rotation for something a bit more chill or if you wanted to have a large number of people kind of hanging out on the grass for games, etc.

If you stand in the middle of the green on many nights, you will witness a wonderful sunset right beyond the mountains. I've also seen many of the wild horses here just eating the grass and also some beautiful cloud scenery. They have public barbecues and open picnic tables for family picnics and get togethers. This is a great spot to play a bocce ball if you have your own bocce ball set. I highly recommend this park if you're in the area.

They were bursting with frogs, baby fish and tadpoles. We all really enjoyed our visit and will be returning!

Take I-80 West past Boomtown to Exit 3 for Verdi.Turn left onto South Verdi Road at the bottom of the ramp (look for the sign pointing to Crystal Peak Park). Follow the road as it twists under I-80, crosses the railroad tracks and goes under I-80 once more. The road becomes Crystal Park Road. Look for the park's upper parking lot on your left. I suggest taking a sharp left turn just before the upper lot to reach the lower parking lot near the picnic area, restrooms, and trailhead. This was a great experience. Bring snacks and your childhood love for dirt FYI- We had perfect reception with Verizon & AT&T the whole route
