The Bay Area is a beacon for awe-inspiring views all around—many of which can be enjoyed from the comfortable vantage point of the playground bench. Scroll through the photo gallery to see our favorite playgrounds with a view.  

Glendale La Loma Park

Formerly a stone quarry, this award-winning park features top-of-the-world panoramas of the city, the Bay and both Golden Gate and Bay Bridge. The park occupies three terraced levels, which contains off-street parking, a fenced-in toddler play area with bucket swings, zip lining, monkey bars, climbing ramp and, in typical Berkeley fashion, an assortment of donated toys.
