Onslow Pines Park
This large park just outside the city has a lot to offer. Onslow Pines Park has a baseball or softball field, football field, playground, soccer field, tennis court, basketball court and volleyball nets. In the summer months, Jacksonville Parks and Recreation hosts outdoor movies at this popular play space.
A key feature is its specially designed accessible playground, which ensures that children of all abilities can play together.
A notable element of this playground is the Trillium Liberty Swing, a unique apparatus specifically built for wheelchair users. This allows individuals in wheelchairs to experience the joy of swinging safely and comfortably, mimicking the motion of a traditional swing. The playground area itself is designed with accessibility in mind, featuring a 450-foot walking pathway around it and encouraging social interaction.
Beyond the playground, Onslow Pines Park also boasts accessible trails designed for both walkers and wheelchair users, making it a great spot for everyone to enjoy a stroll through nature. The park also provides essential accessible amenities like ADA-compliant restrooms and ample free parking, further enhancing its welcoming environment for all visitors.
