ItinerariesA day designed for all ages and energy levels
From playground adventures to ninja courses, this family-friendly itinerary ensures everyone from toddlers to grandparents has a memorable day.
Begin your family day at the incredible playground at Philip S. Miller Park. This is one of the best public playgrounds in Douglas County, with structures designed for multiple age groups, swings, climbing features, and plenty of open space for running. Parents can relax on nearby benches while kids burn off morning energy.
Pro Tip: The playground is right next to The EDGE, so you can let kids play while you handle check-in and waivers for activities later in the day.
Head over to The EDGE for the Ninja Warrior Course. Kids absolutely love testing themselves on obstacles inspired by the TV show. With a 50-pound minimum weight, most school-age children can participate. Watch them tackle the warped wall, monkey bars, and balance challenges while the whole family cheers them on.
Pro Tip: The ninja course is great for kids who might not be ready for the height of Sky Trek. It builds confidence on the ground first.
If the family has energy to spare, take on the famous Challenge Hill staircase. With over 200 steps, it is a fun physical challenge that kids often turn into a race. The views from the top are worth the climb, and there are water fountains at the base.
Fuel hungry adventurers with a family lunch at Fajitas Mexican Grill on Wilcox Street. Their kid-friendly menu, generous portions, and quick service make it ideal for families. The chips and salsa will keep everyone happy while entrees are prepared.
Pro Tip: Ask for a table on the patio if weather permits. Kids can stretch their legs in the adjacent plaza while parents finish their meals.
Return to The EDGE for a family Sky Trek session. The course accommodates adventurers from age 5 and up, with green-rated elements on lower levels perfect for younger kids. Parents and older siblings can tackle the higher levels while keeping an eye on the little ones below. The four-hour session gives everyone plenty of time to explore at their own pace.
Book This ActivityWind down with a gentle walk on the trails surrounding Philip S. Miller Park. The paved paths are stroller-friendly and lead through open meadows with views of the rock formation. This is a great way to cool down after active play while keeping younger kids entertained with nature spotting.
End the day with a well-earned treat at Handel's Ice Cream on Factory Shops Boulevard. Their homemade flavors are a hit with all ages, and the portion sizes are generous. Grab a cone or cup and enjoy it on their outdoor patio while the family recaps their favorite moments from the day.
