The drought over the summer has parched the grass and decreased the water flow but Falls Park is still a nice place to spend an afternoon. The visitor center, which is mostly just a gift shop, has a tower with a viewing platform. Paved paths on both sides of the river wander through the park. Informative signs are located along the paths.
The paths are wide and smooth, very easy to roll along, but hilly so most wheelchair users will need to have some help. The signs along the paths are at a good level and easy to read. Railings along the paths block the view at places.The tower has an elevator. The doors to the outside viewing balcony are a little heavy.
RV parking is located across Falls Park Drive at the farmer’s market lot. RVs are not permitted on the park road. Use caution planning your route. North Phillips Ave., southwest of the park, has a railroad bridge underpass with a 12’ height limit. Park
