Gage Park is a great place to take the family and a real gem for the whole community. It is a super fun and kid-friendly park with plenty of things for kids to play on, including clean, safe, and fun playgrounds. Visitors can enjoy a cute little train to ride on and a carousel as well, with affordable rides. The park features beautiful and peaceful lakes with paved walking paths, well-maintained picnic areas and shelters perfect for gatherings, and a fenced dog park that is roomy and clean. The small local zoo nearby is a delightful surprise with animals that appear well-cared-for, and the lovely Rose Garden adds to the scenery. With a public pool and the zoo right next door, it can easily be a one-stop-shop for an all-day outing. The grounds and restrooms are kept tidy, there is plenty of parking and accessibility, and the atmosphere is safe and welcoming for a full day of outdoor fun.
Once the expansion is completed, this park will be even better

Very nice city park in Topeka. We live in Lawrence and the parks in Topeka are so much nicer. Gage Park has a lot going on. Rose gardens, the zoo, public pool, the children’s discovery center, the bark park, and a train. There are some pretty solid options for the family.

I love Gage park because it is really fun and the train is really fun and you can maybe meet new friends and people that are really nice to you too.
