About the Venue

Vaughn Road Park is one of the clearest officially documented inclusive playground options in Central Alabama, with the City of Montgomery specifically identifying a Boundless Playground on site. Families will also find a half-mile walking trail, picnic shelters, tennis courts, open play space, benches, and on-site parking, which makes it a practical stop for mixed-age outings. It works best for families who want a free outdoor park visit with room to spread out rather than a compact fenced neighborhood playground.
