River Heritage Park, Alabama, United States
4.5 (35 reviews) Wednesday: 8:00 AM - 11:00 PM Spent Ranking #9 in Florence Parks
Free & fun!
We stayed at the Marriott hotel which is almost next to the park. We noticed lot of kids were in the splash pad, but had no idea it was a park. When we saw this park it was so nice! A playground, benches, swings, splash pad, walking track, places to eat, & restrooms. It was very peaceful & great scenery. I think this is a great spot for kids or anyone!

River Heritage Park in Florence, AL is terrific for kids in the summer!
We really loved visiting the River Heritage Park this summer. My child is 3 so the nearby park was really fun for her to explore and play on, but the "splash pad" was incredible and would be great for even teenaged children. It was a 'cool' 90 degrees when we were there this August, but my child loved cooling off in the splash pad and I enjoyed the music and the view of the dam and river. They play music from the surround speaker/towers and the water goes up and down with the tempo-delightful for children! It is also free so that made it especially fun for me. ;) There is not a lot of shade for the parents, but we were only there 45 mins and that was okay. I plan on returning to the area soon, but will probably wait for May so that we can have this on our list of things to do for the young one.

Have a picnic!
We have a picnic with barbecue sandwiches at this park every time we go to Florence. The Tennessee river is flowing slowly by with romantic river boat paddle wheeler blowing as they go by. Grab a table near the river bank. Take a blanket and enjoy!
