Paha Sapa Park in Burnsville is 21 acres and has family friendly amenities that include a spacious playground, space for picnics and green space for open play, sports fields and courts, including a four-square court painted onto the basketball court. In the winter this park maintains an ice rink and a warming house. The play equipment at this park is large with multiple structures for various ages. There is somewhat of a car theme to this play area, with a cool green rocking race car for toddlers and a delivery truck molding in the landing between the slides. Other fun features include gymnastic rings and pull up bars. The playground surface is lined with wood chips. A park building that holds up to 50 people is available to rent for birthday parties and other private events. This would make a great party location for a winter ice-skating party or a summer party for a younger child who loves cars. Call 952-895-4500 to make a reservation.
