Adventure Heights Park

– an All-Abilities Park

As one enters the single entrance to Spanish Fork’s new all-abilities park, they will notice a large compass beneath their feet. It is the symbol of stepping into a fun time together, no matter our pace or method. In this beautifully landscaped, 10-acre park, there is something for everyone. Come and see why people are rating this beautiful park 4.9 stars on Google.

After meeting with a number of special-needs families, Adventure Heights Park was designed to accommodate a range of physical, developmental, and sensory needs of children wanting to play and experience their full range of abilities. Here are some of the parks’ unique features your family can enjoy:

The Incredible Tree - It stands 24 feet tall with a 16-foot platform and slide. Wheelchair-users can enjoy the first level of the treehouse and even peer inside the tree trunk from an elevated platform.

The metal slide on the playground - It serves two purposes: 1) For those with cochlear implants, it eliminates static electricity from plastic slides which can negatively affect them. 2) For those who need assistance to walk, they can scoot themselves over onto the small seat at the base of the slide to await help, safely out of the way of those continuing to enjoy the slide too. The Sensory Garden - For those easily overstimulated by the excitement and energy of the playground, this is a quieter space to touch, smell, see, and hear with a number of interactive toys and musical instruments. The zip line - It contains two seats with seat belts and harnesses. The Liberty Swing - This is a wheelchair-only swing. Users will be trained on its operation and receive a key to access and use the feature. A single entrance to the park - Having an enclosed park helps to keep family members safe, especially those prone to run or wander. 1321 E Canyon Rd.
