About the Venue

Fairmount Park is another Bangor city park whose official recreation listing specifically identifies the playground as accessible. Located on Norway Road on Bangor's west side, it offers a simpler neighborhood-park visit with a playground, walking path, basketball court, and open green space. Families looking for a lower-key stop with published accessibility language may find it easier to plan than parks with less official detail.
