Eugene Park Tour: Country Lane Park

Dale and I are back at it! After staying inside most of the winter, we had our first foray out between rainstorms. Our Tuesday Travels took us to a new-to-us city park.


Country Lane Park is a small neighborhood park that has the amenities of most of Eugene's neighborhood parks. There's a nice playground with soft bark underfoot that has bouncy cars for the little ones and a good-sized play structure for kids. There's even a climbing wall on this one.


On one side of the playground is this bell-shaped tube. If you talk into it here ...


your buddy can hear your voice on the other side of the playground.


There are benches for the parents to rest on while the littles are playing and swings for kids of all ages.

Behind the playground is a small basketball court and a half acre of open grassy area.


W-a-y back among the trees, across a quite muddy field, Dale and I found our first geocache of 2025. My shoes are still caked in dirt.
