Playgrounds and things to do with kids in Danville (3)

A 17-acre former ranch (barn facade, Camp Swain history) with separate younger and older kid play areas, a dog park, walking trails, and a motion-activated water feature - a tunnel of spraying metal tubes plus ground jets - that runs April through September.

Danville's iconic 'Snake Park' - a giant mosaic serpent winding down the hill - reopened in November 2025 after a full playground renovation: modern nature-inspired climbers, musical play elements, game tables, and new accessible features for a much wider age range than the old toddler setup.

Danville's picnic-first park: playground, bocce courts, big shade trees, reservable picnic areas, and a location next to Sycamore Valley Elementary that makes it the default after-school and weekend-birthday spot.
